YOGURT-MARINATED FRIED CHICKEN WITH SAFFRON AND PAPRIKA



Yogurt-Marinated Fried Chicken With Saffron and Paprika image

Here is a fried chicken recipe that is the best kind of weeknight cooking, with ingredients found quickly at most local grocery stores, whirled in a food processor and then left overnight to turn into something delicious the next evening. A yogurt marinade helps tenderize the boneless, skinless chicken thighs, infusing them with saffron and paprika, and a quick frying lends the meat a crispy, minty coating. You can marinate the chicken for 3 hours or overnight, but you set the timetable depending on whatever else is going on. This chicken will adapt. Make one night, finish the next. That's living.

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 teaspoon saffron
2 cups plain whole-milk yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 1/4 cups flour
2 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 tablespoon plus 3/4 teaspoon dried mint
1 tablespoon plus 3/4 teaspoon salt, more for sprinkling
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Oil for frying
1 cup walnut pieces
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine saffron with 1 tablespoon water and let soak 10 minutes. Place in food processor with yogurt and garlic and purée until smooth and yellow. Place chicken in glass or ceramic bowl; pour yogurt mixture on top, turn to coat; cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • In a medium bowl, combine flour, paprika, mint, salt and pepper. Heat a generous half-inch oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Drop in a bit of bread to test temperature; oil should bubble vigorously. Working in batches to avoid crowding, dredge chicken pieces in flour mixture, then fry until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes a side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • Sprinkle with salt and serve immediately, topped with walnuts and lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • When selecting yogurt for your marinade, choose a thick, plain yogurt. This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy saucepan to pound the chicken breasts flat.
  • Be sure to coat the chicken in the yogurt marinade completely. This will help to ensure that the chicken is evenly flavored.
  • When frying the chicken, use a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan and will also help to cook the chicken evenly.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, drain it on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the fried chicken with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Spicy yogurt fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The yogurt marinade helps to keep the chicken moist and flavorful, while the spicy coating gives it a nice kick. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
