SOUTHERN LIVING'S BEST FRIED CHICKEN



Southern Living's Best Fried Chicken image

Many modern cooks have never learned to fry. We are convinced that fried food is unhealthy, unpopular and messy. But Norman King, a lifelong Southerner, a registered dietitian and a food editor at Southern Living magazine set out to change that. In "The Way to Fry," he offers both a guide to proper deep-frying technique, and a terrific recipe for crunchy, juicy fried chicken. While at first glance the recipe may resemble every other fried chicken you've ever seen, the differences lie in the precise instructions, ensuring chicken that's cooked through, golden and crisp. A little bacon fat is an option for flavor.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon salt
1 chicken with skin, about 2 1/2 pounds, cut up into 8 pieces (see note)
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups vegetable oil, like grapeseed, peanut or canola (do not use olive oil)
1/4 cup bacon drippings (or use more oil)

Steps:

  • Combine 1 tablespoon salt with 3 quarts water in a large bowl or container. Add chicken, cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Drain, rinse with cold water and pat dry.
  • Stir together remaining 1 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Sprinkle half the mixture evenly over chicken.
  • In a large sealable plastic bag, combine remaining pepper mixture and flour. Add 2 pieces chicken to bag and shake well to coat. Remove chicken pieces, shaking off extra flour, and set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Take a large (10- or 12-inch) cast-iron skillet or chicken fryer, for which you have a lid, and fit with a candy or deep-frying thermometer. Add oil and bacon drippings and heat to 360 degrees over medium heat; the oil will ripple and possibly give off a few wisps of smoke.
  • Using tongs, immediately add chicken pieces, skin side down (work in batches if necessary to avoid crowding pan). The oil will drop to about 325 degrees, where it should stay; adjust heat so that oil is bubbling gently around the pieces. Cover and cook 6 minutes; uncover and cook 9 minutes. Turn chicken pieces; cover and cook 6 minutes. Uncover and cook another 5 to 9 minutes, depending on size of pieces. If necessary for even browning, turn pieces over a few times toward the end.
  • Drain on paper towels or paper bags. Let cool at least 20 minutes before serving.

BEST EVER FORGOTTEN CHICKEN



Best Ever Forgotten Chicken image

When I was 10 I asked my sitter for this recipe because her house smelled SO good while it was in the oven. I still make it for the same reason today. This is different from the other Forgotten Chicken recipes already submitted. I sometimes use boneless skinless chicken and I LOVE the 2 different cooking options!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 2h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3 lb) chicken, cut up
1/2 envelope onion soup mix
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 package regular cook uncle bens long grain and wild rice blend
2 3/4 cups water

Steps:

  • Place rice in roasting pan.
  • Put chicken on top.
  • Sprinkle with onion soup mix.
  • Spoon cream of chicken soup over chicken and rice.
  • Pour the water over ingredients in roaster.
  • Sprinkle herbs from rice over the ingredients in roaster.
  • Cover.
  • Do not open or stir till cooking time is over.
  • Bake at 325 degrees for 2- 2 1/2 hours OR Bake at 200 degrees for 4 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts work best for this recipe. The bones and skin help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Use a Dutch oven or other heavy pot. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. Make sure there is enough space for the chicken to cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Brown the chicken before cooking it. This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Add some liquid to the pot. This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
  • Cook the chicken on low heat. This will help to keep it moist and tender.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Forgotten chicken is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a busy weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make the best forgotten chicken ever.
