Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup celery, chopped
1 small onion, quartered
1 bay leaf
1 chicken, cut into serving pieces
salad oil or shortening
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salad oil

Steps:

  • In large skillet, combine celery, onion, bay leaf, salt and 1 cup water. Add chicken pieces. Bring to a boil; cover and let simmer for 15 minutes. Drain chicken pieces. Pat dry with paper towels and let cool.
  • In deep fryer or skillet, at least 2-inches deep, slowly heat oil to 375F on deep fry thermometer. Also preheat oven to 300°F.
  • Meanwhile, make batter. Sift flour with baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • In medium bowl, with rotary beaters, beat eggs, milk and oil until combined. Add flour mixture gradually, beating until smooth.
  • Dip chicken pieces in batter coating evenly. Deep fry a few pieces at a time, turning occasionally, 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and tender. Drain well on paper towels.
  • Keep browned chicken in oven while rest of chicken cooks.
  • SOOOOO GOOOOD!

Tips:

  • For crispy chicken, use a combination of all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and baking powder. The cornstarch helps to create a crispy crust, while the baking powder helps the chicken to rise and become fluffy.
  • To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • To add flavor to the chicken, marinate it in a mixture of buttermilk, garlic, onion, and spices for at least 30 minutes before frying.
  • For a healthier version of fried chicken, bake it instead of frying it. To bake the chicken, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the chicken for 20-25 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
