Sour Cream and Onion Biscuits image

Sour cream isn't just a gimmick. Used in place of the more typical cream or buttermilk, it adds a rich, tangy flavor, and its acidity helps make the biscuits incredibly tender.

Yield Makes 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1½ tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1¾ tsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
1¼ tsp. sugar
2½ cups (313 g) all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
10 Tbsp. chilled unsalted butter, cut into (½") pieces, plus 2 Tbsp. melted
8 scallions, thinly sliced crosswise (not on a diagonal)
1¼ cups sour cream, plus more for serving
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°F. Whisk salt, pepper, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and 2½ cups flour in a large bowl to combine. Add chilled butter and toss to coat. Using your hands, work butter into dry ingredients until there are lots of flat pieces and pea-size bits. Add scallions and toss to evenly distribute.
  • Create a well in the center of mixture and add 1¼ cups sour cream into the center. Using a fork and working in circles, mix until large shaggy clumps form. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead once or twice until it comes together (flour your hands if needed). If there are any loose bits, add them to center of dough and knead once more to incorporate. Pat dough into an 8x4" rectangle about 1" thick.
  • Working from a short side, fold dough in thirds as you would a letter. It doesn't need to overlap perfectly. Pat dough into another 8x4" rectangle, then fold dough in thirds like a letter one more time. Pat dough back into an 8x4" rectangle and cut in half lengthwise. Cut each half crosswise into 4 squares for a total of 8 biscuits.
  • Transfer biscuits to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops gently with melted butter; sprinkle with sea salt. Bake biscuits until golden brown, 18-22 minutes. Serve warm with sour cream (or more butter!) for slathering.

CRISPY SOUR CREAM AND ONION CHICKEN



Crispy Sour Cream and Onion Chicken image

Picture sour cream and onion dip slathered on chicken cutlets, dredged in panko bread crumbs, and fried until crisp like a potato chip, and you'll envision this recipe. The marinade doesn't just deliver flavor here: The lactic acid in the sour cream also keeps the thin chicken breasts juicy. Shower the crispy chicken with fresh chives and lemon juice, or, if you crave something creamy for dunking, pair it with a dip of sour cream, lemon juice and chives.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     weekday, poultry, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally (see Tip) and pounded 1/8-inch thick, or use 4 chicken cutlets (don't split or pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives (or 1 tablespoon dried chives), plus more for serving
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 cups panko bread crumbs
Canola oil, for frying
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, chives and 1 tablespoon onion powder. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and turn to coat. (Chicken can sit in the marinade for up to 8 hours. Refrigerate, then let come to room temperature before cooking.)
  • In a shallow bowl or lipped plate, stir together the panko and remaining 1 tablespoon onion powder; season with salt and pepper.
  • Working one at a time, press the chicken breasts into the panko, using your fingers to pack the panko onto both sides of the chicken, and place on a large plate or a sheet pan.
  • Line a plate with paper towels. Heat 1/8-inch canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Drop a piece of panko in: If it sizzles, the oil's ready. Add a chicken cutlet (or two, if they can fit comfortably), and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding and heating more oil as needed, and removing excess panko from the pan with a slotted spoon.
  • Serve chicken with more chives and lemon wedges for squeezing.
