CRISPY BAKED 'FRIED' CHICKEN



Crispy Baked 'Fried' Chicken image

Savor Cat Cora's Crispy Baked "Fried" Chicken recipe from Food Network Magazine: Corn flakes make it crispy, while paprika, cayenne and sage give it spice.

Provided by Cat Cora

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 chicken pieces (preferably 2 breasts, 2 thighs, 2 legs and 2 wings)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups cornflakes
2/3 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
3/4 teaspoon ground sage
Serving suggestion: Easy Greens, recipe follows

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a rack in a roasting pan or on a baking sheet.
  • Rinse the chicken in cold water; pat dry. In a wide bowl or on a plate, season the flour with salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dredge each chicken piece through the flour so it's fully coated, tap against the bowl to shake off excess flour and set aside. Discard the flour.
  • Here comes the part kids like best: Crush the cornflakes by placing them in a big resealable plastic bag, carefully pressing the bag to push out the air. Seal up the bag (with as little air inside as possible) and run over the flakes with a rolling pin. Open the bag and pour the crushed flakes into a wide bowl or onto a plate.
  • In a large bowl (big enough to dredge the chicken pieces), mix the buttermilk, mustard, cayenne pepper, paprika and sage. Give each floured chicken piece a good buttermilk bath and then roll in the cornflake crumbs.
  • Arrange the chicken pieces on the rack and place in the hot oven. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, lower the heat to 375 degrees and cook for another 25 to 30 minutes, until cooked through and crispy. The juices should run clear when the meat is pierced with a knife. Serve with Easy Greens.

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 2 pounds hearty greens (escarole, chicory, mustard greens or a combination, large stems trimmed), slightly cover the pot and cook until tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain greens in a colander, then let cool about 10 minutes. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons each extra-virgin olive oil and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper.

FOIL WRAPPED CHICKEN - BAKED OR FRIED



Foil Wrapped Chicken - Baked or Fried image

The secret of this popular dish lies in the marinade, which, when cooking, caramelizes the chicken and other ingredients, joining them together. When wrapping the chicken, it is customary to add a few other ingredients as a type of garnish. Cilantro, Chinese dried mushrooms, Chinese sausages (you can substitute smoked ham), and/or green onions are all used. When it comes time to cook, the garnish and chicken pieces are wrapped envelope style in square packets and (normally) deep-fried. Baking is another option; see instructions in the final step. Cooking time is normally about three to four minutes - long enough for the chicken to cook through but not for the paper to blacken. (This is for five to six inch squares - the cooking time will be longer if you are working with a recipe that calls for larger packets.) Stir the pieces lightly with chopsticks a few times while deep-frying. Drain the cooked chicken packets on paper towels. This recipe can be prepared ahead up to the deep-frying or baking stage, then frozen. Time does not include 1 hour marination. Recipe courtesy Rhonda Parkinson.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 24 packets

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 slice gingerroot, shredded
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
3 -4 dried Chinese mushrooms, softened and thinly sliced (24 slices, 1 for each packet)
3 green onions, thinly sliced on the diagonal (2 - 3 slices for each packet)
24 sprigs cilantro
24 squares parchment paper (6-inch squares) or 24 aluminum foil (6-inch squares)
peanut oil, for deep-frying

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken into coarse mince and playfully spank it with a mallet to tenderize. Say, "You've been a naughty little chicken!".
  • Mix the marinade ingredients together, add chicken, and refrigerate for one hour. At the 45 minute mark, add the mushrooms and scallions.
  • Cut paper or foil pieces into 6-inch squares.
  • Paper-wrapped chicken is normally wrapped envelope style. Take a square of paper and lay it out in front of you. Add 2 of the chicken slices, 1 slice of mushroom, 2 slices of green onion and a coriander sprig (if desired) in the middle, being sure to keep the filling in the center and not near the edges.
  • Bring the bottom flap up over the chicken. Fold the right side over toward the middle, then the left side, so that one is overlapping the other. Fold the top flap down, tucking it inside the opening to seal the package. It is very important to make sure the packets are well sealed so that no oil seeps inches.
  • If using foil, fold in half diagonally to form a triangle, then crimp the open edges together.
  • DEEP FRYING METHOD: Heat wok and add oil for deep-frying.
  • When the oil is ready, slide the packages in, about 6 at a time so as not to overcrowd the wok. Deep-fry the packets, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.
  • Drain on paper towels. Continue deep-frying the rest of the packets.
  • Serve the chicken packets on a large platter, garnished with greens if desired. Guests can open the packets with either chopsticks or their fingers, but be careful as they're hot inside.
  • OVEN METHOD: Bake in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius) oven for 18 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.

BAKED BBQ FRIED CHICKEN



Baked BBQ Fried Chicken image

This is a wonderful Southern treat in which everyone will enjoy! Remember, you can also eat the chicken without the BBQ sauce as well.

Provided by Jenny Sook

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Fried Chicken Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
3 eggs
1 cup water
½ cup milk
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons black pepper
6 cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup salt
5 teaspoons black pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons dry mesquite flavored seasoning mix
4 cups oil for frying, or as needed
1 teaspoon butter
1 (12 ounce) bottle barbecue sauce

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, milk, 2 tablespoons salt, and 2 tablespoons pepper with a fork until smooth. In another large bowl, stir together the flour, 1/4 cup salt, 5 teaspoons pepper, garlic, and mesquite seasoning.
  • Fill a large heavy skillet or wok halfway full with oil. Heat to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). Use a fork to pick up one chicken strip at a time, and dip it into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture, back into the egg mixture, and into the flour mixture again. Place coated strips into the hot oil to fry. Do not over crowd, just cook in batches. Once chicken is browned on one side, flip over, and brown on the other side.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Butter one 12x20 inch glass baking dish, or two 9x13 inch baking dishes. Pour enough barbeque sauce into the dish to coat the bottom. Arrange fried chicken strips in rows in the prepared dish. Pour remaining sauce over the top.
  • Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, until the sauce is caramelized onto the chicken.

Provided by Annacia

Categories     High Protein

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1 egg white
6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • . Preheat oven to 450F (230C).
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack on top.
  • Spray rack with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk buttermilk with egg white, add chicken and turn to evenly coat.
  • Measure flour, salt, garlic powder, oregano, chili powder and baking powder into a large plastic bag.
  • Close top and gently shake to evenly mix.
  • Remove chicken, one piece at a time, from buttermilk and shake off excess liquid, then place in bag.

  • Bake in centre of preheated oven until coating is crisp and golden, about 30 minutes.
  • TIP:.
  • If you have time, let chicken marinate in buttermilk before roasting. This makes it even more tender and adds tang, too! Place chicken and buttermilk mixture in a large plastic bag. Push chicken down into marinade, then squeeze out as much air as possible from bag. Seal tightly with an elastic band as close to chicken as possible. Place in a large bowl. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Then proceed with recipe as written.

BAKED FRIED CHICKEN



Baked Fried Chicken image

A friend shared this on Facebook with the notation "I am pretty sure that I have discovered the KFC secret recipe! It is DEAD ON! It is also baked...not fried and there isn't any skin! So you get to enjoy the taste of the seasoning, instead of pulling it off because of the slimy skin! This is super easy and you are TOTALLY going...

Provided by Wanda Grundmann

Categories     Chicken

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 chicken tenderloin strips, skinless, boneless
1 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp pepper
1 Tbsp season all
2 tsp paprika
milk

Steps:

  • 1. Place thawed chicken breast tenderloin strips in a bowl of milk. Let soak for 20-30 min.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 1/2 stick of butter into a few pieces and place in a 9x13 pan. Melt butter in pre-heated oven. Spread melted butter around the bottom of the pan. Lightly spray the pan, if needed, to make sure that there are no dry spots.
  • 3. Mix in a Gallon Size Ziploc or Large Bowl: 1/2 tsp. Salt 1 T Season All 3/4 tsp Pepper 1 c. Flour 2 tsp. Paprika
  • 4. Shake excess milk off of chicken and completely coat each piece with the seasoning mix. You can either shake the chicken in the bag, until coated, or dip each piece in the bowl until coated. Place each piece of chicken in the pan. Cook for 20 min. Turn each piece of chicken and continue cooking for 20 more minutes, or until cooked through. ENJOY!

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade. This will help infuse the chicken with flavor and keep it moist during baking.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Baked fried chicken is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Baked fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a healthier alternative to traditional fried chicken, but it still has all of the flavor and crunch. With a few simple tips, you can make baked fried chicken that is sure to impress your family and friends.
