Delicious Fried Chicken Recipe
Description
This simple recipe, produces some excellent Home made Fried Chicken. Crispy coating outside, tender and juicy inside, perfectly seasoned fried chicken!
Ingredients
Instructions:
-
Pat dry the chicken. Place in a dry shallow bowl.
-
In another bowl, add salt, pepper, garlic, tabasco sauce and add enough buttermilk to cover the chicken. Taste the seasoning to adjust.
-
Pour over the chicken in the first bowl.
-
Marinate for a ½ hour.
-
Combine flour, salt, pepper, herbs and toss well in another dry bowl.
-
Heat Oil in a fryer or skillet.
-
Dredge the marinated chicken in the flour mixture and roll around gently so that each piece is well coated. (Do not overcrowd)
-
Lower into the oil. Once the Skillet is full, reduce the heat to medium and fry for 5-8 minutes,
-
Gently turn the pieces over, careful not to break the buttermilk crust.
-
Cover and fry on low for around 25 minutes. Then uncover and turn heat to high and turn over the chicken once more for 5 more minutes.
-
Drain on kitchen paper for 5 minutes before serving.
Note
- You can experiment with your favorite herbs. Another mix I use is 1- 1 ¼ tsp of the following herb and spice combination: 1 tsp paprika,1 tsp salt, 1 tsp mustard powder, ½ tsp cinnamon powder, ¼ tsp cardamom powder, ¼ tsp onion powder, ¼ tsp celery salt)
- Adjusting the heat goes a long way to frying perfect chicken if your cooking on the stove top.
- Remember if you are only frying a few pieces to adjust the time accordingly.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet or deep fryer.
- If you dont hear a nice moderate sizzle it means you must turn up the heat.
- To start off frying test the oil with a bit of batter it should sizzle quick but not splatter too much or the crust will be burnt on the outside before the chicken inside is cooked.
- Covering and frying for the majority of the time gives a succulently moist chicken and increasing the heat at the end gives a crisp coating.
- To get an even coating you can also put the flour mixture in a large food zipper bag, add all the chicken nd shake well after sealing the bag. Do not press on the pieces with hands
