Time 2h43m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 strips bacon
1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken
2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons hot sauce
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups canola oil
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/4 cup blue cheese, room temperature, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

  • Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. In a large bowl combine the buttermilk, hot sauce, and chicken. Cover and let marinate in refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • In a glass baking dish, whisk together the flour, cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and salt and pepper. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and add to the seasoned flour. Make sure all the chicken pieces are thoroughly coated. Remove the chicken from the flour mixture and put back into the buttermilk. Remove chicken from buttermilk and put back into the seasoned flour mixture for a second coating. Transfer the double coated chicken to a baking sheet and reserve.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large cast iron skillet to 350 degrees F. Add the reserved 2 tablespoons bacon fat. Working in batches, fry the chicken until golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked chicken to a sheet pan lined with paper towels.
  • In a medium bowl stir together the sour cream, mayonnaise and blue cheese. Stir in the crumbled bacon.
  • Serve the chicken with the Derby Dip on the side.

Time 20m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 scallion, sliced, whites and greens kept separate
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 4-ounce block sharp white Cheddar
2 1/2 ounces low-moisture whole-milk mozzarella
3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, chopped, plus 2 teaspoons adobo sauce
2/3 cup whole milk
5 tablespoons Louisiana-style hot sauce

2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin removed (about 8 1/2 ounces)
1/2 cup crispy fried onions, such as French's
Tortilla chips, for serving

Steps:

SPICY CHICKEN DIP



Spicy Chicken Dip image

I came up with this dip when I was in the mood for Buffalo chicken dip, but didn't have the necessary ingredients. It is a creamy cheesy dip with a nice bit of back-end heat. I don't usually measure when I cook, so feel free to adjust any measurements to fit your taste. We ate this with sliced french bread, pretzels, and chips.
