CLASSIC FRIED CHICKEN
Steps:
- Make the batter In a large bowl, mix buttermilk with 2 tsp. sea salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Add chix and toss to coat. Cover and refrig for at least 4 hours Make the Broth for the Gravy (optional) Heat the oil in a large (4qt) saucepan over med-high heat. Add the chicken parts and onion and cook, stirring often, until the chix parts lose their raw color, about 5 min. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken parts release juices, about 20 min. Add 1 qt water and 1/2 tsp. salt. Increase the heat to med high, bring to boil,reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Simmer until the broth is flavorful, about 20 min. Strain the broth into a 1-qt glass cup. (You will need 1-1/2 cups for the gravy; reserve remaining broth for another use.) Set aside. Fry the chicken When you're ready to fry the chix, put the flour, paprika, 2 tsp. sea salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a brown paper bag, and shake to combine. Working in 2 batches, drop the chicken pieces into the flour mixture, fold the top of the bag closed, and shake to coat completely. Arrange the coated chicken on a large wire rack set over a large rimmed baking sheet. Discard the remaining flour mixture. Pour enough oil into a deep heavy-duty 12" skillet to reach a depth of 1/2". Heat the oil over med-high heat until a thermometer clipped to the side of the skillet w/o touching the bottom registers 350°F.

[email protected]I've tried many fried chicken recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the buttermilk marinade. It makes the chicken so flavorful and moist.
