CHICKEN FRIED CHICKEN WITH WHITE GRAVY



Chicken Fried Chicken with White Gravy image

A true Southern comfort food, legend has it that chicken fried chicken was created by German immigrants in Texas during the 19th century when they adapted the wiener schnitzel by using beef instead of veal that was then twice-breaded and fried like fried chicken. In reality, chicken fried chicken and its cousin, chicken fried steak, are more closely related to Southern fried chicken, already popular throughout the American South by the 19th century. Over the years, the chicken fried steak technique was also used on chicken breasts, pounded thin and soaked in buttermilk, resulting in crispy, tender chicken. Like its steak counterpart, chicken fried chicken should be served with a peppery white gravy.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 large egg
Canola, vegetable or peanut oil, for frying
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fit cooling racks into 2 baking sheets.
  • Place 1 chicken breast in a one-gallon resealable plastic bag with the seal left open (alternatively, place between 2 pieces of plastic wrap). Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until it is 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and egg in a medium bowl. Set up a dredging station by arranging the chicken, dry ingredients, wet ingredients and prepared baking sheet in an assembly line. Dredge 1 chicken breast in the dry ingredients to coat, then dip in the wet ingredients and shake off any excess. Dredge once again in the dry ingredients to coat and transfer to one of the cooling racks. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Fill a deep cast-iron skillet with 3/4 to 1 inch of oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in 2 batches, fry the chicken until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Place on the second cooling rack and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
  • For the gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking continuously, until light brown, about 2 minutes. Pour in the milk in a steady stream while whisking. Add 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, then the vinegar. Cook at a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Serve the chicken fried chicken topped with the white gravy.

CHICKEN-FRIED STEAK WITH SPICED MILK GRAVY



Chicken-Fried Steak with Spiced Milk Gravy image

Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Eight 4-ounce 1/4-inch-thick eye of round steaks, needled or pounded and tenderized
1 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons smashed brined peppercorns
1 teaspoon brining liquid from the peppercorns
2 dashes hot sauce
Kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • For the marinade: Soak the tenderized steaks in the buttermilk for 1 hour or up to overnight. This will help tenderize the meat. For the spiced milk gravy: Like any good gravy, we are starting out with a simple roux of equal parts butter and flour. Melt the butter in a medium saucepot over medium heat, then whisk in the flour. Cook the flour and butter until it's a light blond color (just enough to cook the raw taste out), about 2 minutes, and then whisk in the broth and milk. Bring the gravy to a simmer and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the Worcestershire sauce, peppercorns, brine, hot sauce and salt to taste and bring back to a simmer. Check for seasoning and set aside until ready to use. For the chicken-fried steaks: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Add the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, baking soda, cayenne and onion powder to a shallow baking dish. Remove the steaks from the buttermilk and place each steak in the flour mixture, coating all of the sides and shaking off the excess. Next, dip the steaks back into the buttermilk, coating them on all sides and allowing the excess to drip off. Return to the flour mixture once again, shaking off the excess. Reserve the flour mixture for dredging the steak a third time for an extra-crispy crust after resting. Let the steaks sit on a wire rack in the fridge 30 minutes (this will help the coating to really adhere to the chicken-fried steak). Then re-dredge in the seasoned flour just before frying. Heat 1-inch vegetable oil in large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat to 350 degrees F. Working in batches of two at a time, place the steaks in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, using tongs to turn once, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Repeat the process with all the steaks. Transfer the chicken-fried steaks to individual plates. Spoon the Spiced Milk Gravy over the steak and serve immediately.

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 broiler-fryer chickens, cut up (3-3 1/2 lbs each)
1 cup shortening
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper, to taste
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/8 teaspoon browning sauce (optional)
fresh oregano (optional)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl beat milk and eggs.
  • In another bowl, combine seasonings and flour.
  • Dip chicken pieces in egg mixture and then in flour mixture.
  • Melt shortening in 12" iron skillet.
  • Brown chicken on both sides, cover and cook over low heat for 45 minutes or until juices run clear.

  • Combine milk and water; add to skillet.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Boil and stir for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add browning sauce if desired.
  • Serve gravy with chicken and garnish with oregano.

Tips:

  • Use a cast iron skillet for the best results. Cast iron skillets retain heat well, which helps to create a crispy crust on the chicken.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the chicken will not cook evenly.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

Chicken fried chicken with milk gravy is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is crispy and flavorful, and the milk gravy is rich and creamy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
