Time 1h50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 lemon (juice only)
2 pounds chicken breast (cut into strips (or use tenders))
1 1/4 cups white flour
4 tablespoon plain bread crumbs (panko or regular both work)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 tablespoon salt (or less to taste)
2-3 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 large eggs
2/3 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup butter

Steps:

  • Marinate: Whisk together all ingredients for the marinade (except for the chicken) in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces, making sure they're all well coated. Cover and place in the fridge for one hour up to overnight. (If your'e short on time, simply place all the ingredients in a zip-loc bag and massage the chicken for a few minutes. Let it sit in the fridge for 10 minutes before using.)
  • Prep the pan and oven:Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C). While the oven is preheating, place a dark, rimmed roasting or baking pan in the oven to heat up (more info in the post).
  • Mix the dry coating:Place all ingredients for the dry coating in a large bowl. Mix well.
  • Mix the wet coating: To a separate bowl, add the eggs and 2/3 cup buttermilk. Whisk very well.
  • Coat the chicken pieces: Shake off any excess marinade. Dredge the chicken through the flour mix, shaking off any excess. Dip in the egg mix, making sure the chicken is evenly covered. Dredge through the flour mix once more, making sure the chicken is evenly covered, shaking off any excess.
  • Bake the chicken:
  • Place butter and chicken on pan: Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven, using oven gloves. Melt the butter on it, then place the chicken pieces on top without overcrowding the pan.
  • Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). Finish by broiling for a few minutes, until golden and crispy.
  • Serve: The chicken will feel soft right as it comes out of the oven. Let it sit for 2 minutes before serving, it will crisp up. Don't let it sit for a long period of time before you eat it, or it will start turning soggy.

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.

BUTTERMILK BARBECUE CHICKEN



Buttermilk Barbecue Chicken image

Buttermilk is a very popular marinade for fried chicken, but for whatever reason, it isn't often used with other chicken cooking methods. Which is kind of surprising, especially when you taste just how effective it is for something like this beautiful barbecued chicken. Yogurt, a very similar product, is quite popular in grilled chicken marinades. So, why not use buttermilk? This goes great with coleslaw, potato salad, and a squeeze of lemon.

Time 7h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups buttermilk
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 (3 pound) whole chicken

Steps:

  • Whisk buttermilk, brown sugar, cider vinegar, garlic, thyme, pepper, paprika, cumin, cayenne, and salt together in a bowl.
  • Trim wing flats from the chicken. Cut along both sides of the backbone from the tail to the neck; remove backbone. Make a 1/4-inch-deep cut through the piece of cartilage in the center. Open up both sides to reveal breastbone; lift out. Cut chicken in half through the center line.
  • Place both halves in a resealable zip-top bag and pour in the buttermilk marinade. Place the bag in a bowl to catch any leaks. Press air out and seal. Marinate in the fridge for 6 to 18 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken from marinade and transfer onto a paper towel-lined plate. Blot off excess marinade.
  • Place chicken on the grill cut-side down, skin-side up; cover and cook for 20 minutes.
  • Flip chicken over and continue grilling for 7 to 10 minutes. Flip once more and grill until no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

  • Don't over-marinate the chicken. Too much time in the buttermilk can make the chicken tough.
  • Use a high-quality breading. A good breading will help to create a crispy crust on the chicken.
  • Fry the chicken in a hot oven. This will help to ensure that the chicken cooks evenly and doesn't dry out.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If the chicken is too crowded, it won't cook evenly.
