Best 2 Airman Andersons Chicken Recipes

AIRMAN ANDERSON'S CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large heavy-bottomed pot, pour oil in enough to fill the pot about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-fryer thermometer inserted into the oil reaches 350 degrees.
• Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Slice chicken into 2-inch pieces. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, cayenne pepper, salt and black pepper to taste. In a paper bag, shake together salt, pepper, flour and cornstarch.
• Dip the chicken in batches, first in egg mixture, then in the flour mixture and shake to coat. Set on wire rack and let sit for 10 minutes. While chicken is resting, prepare sauce. In a large straight sided saute pan combine orange zest, orange juice, brown sugar, butter, hot pepper flakes and worcestershire sauce.
• Stir; bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Carefully place chicken in hot oil and fry until golden and crispy, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the saute pan with the sauce and toss until evenly coated. Remove to a serving platter and serve on rice.

SUNNY'S CRAZY RICH CHICKEN AND WAFFLES

Steps:

• For the flour: Add the flour, cornstarch, cayenne, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to a shallow dish. Mix to distribute ingredients evenly.
• For the egg wash: Add the eggs, hot sauce, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to a separate shallow dish. Whisk and add enough water to loosen, but still have enough body to coat something?like chicken!
• For the chicken: Dunk the tenders in the flour mixture, shake the pieces off, then dip in the egg mixture. Shake off the excess egg mixture and toss the tenders back in the flour mixture to coat. Shake off the excess and rest on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes. (If any areas look like they are soaking up the flour quickly while resting, dust the chicken with some more of the flour mixture.)
• Add the butter to a nonstick saucepan over medium heat and melt. Add the gold cocoa butter and stir until combined. Add the honey, maple syrup, hot sauce and some black pepper. Stir until combined and remove from the heat.
• Add enough oil to reach more than 3 inches up the side of a Dutch oven or large heavy pot over medium-high heat and bring to 350 degrees F. Shake off any excess flour from the tenders and gently place them in the oil in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot. Cook, while maintaining the oil temperature at around 350 degrees F, until the tenders are golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per batch. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle immediately with salt. Place on skewers with portions of Sunny's 1-2-3 Waffles. Drizzle with golden honey sauce and a shake of gold dust.
• Separate the egg into 2 bowls. Whisk the yolk, then whisk in the milk followed by the flour.
• Whisk the egg white until soft peaks form. Fold the white into the batter. Spray a waffle iron with cooking spray, then make waffles.
