1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon smoked paprika

SUNNY'S CRAZY RICH CHICKEN AND WAFFLES



Sunny's Crazy Rich Chicken and Waffles image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds chicken tenders (or breasts cut into strips), at room temperature
4 tablespoons salted butter
4 tablespoons gold cocoa butter, such as Roxy & Rich
1/2 cup creamed honey
1/4 cup maple syrup
3 tablespoons hot sauce, preferably Frank's RedHot
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
2 to 3 servings Sunny's 1-2-3 Waffles, recipe follows, cut into portions
Edible gold dust or highlight gold dust, for dusting
1 large egg
2 tablespoons whole milk
3 tablespoons self-rising flour
Nonstick cooking spray, for the waffle iron

Steps:

  • For the flour: Add the flour, cornstarch, cayenne, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to a shallow dish. Mix to distribute ingredients evenly.
  • For the egg wash: Add the eggs, hot sauce, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper to a separate shallow dish. Whisk and add enough water to loosen, but still have enough body to coat something?like chicken!
  • For the chicken: Dunk the tenders in the flour mixture, shake the pieces off, then dip in the egg mixture. Shake off the excess egg mixture and toss the tenders back in the flour mixture to coat. Shake off the excess and rest on a wire rack for 10 to 15 minutes. (If any areas look like they are soaking up the flour quickly while resting, dust the chicken with some more of the flour mixture.)
  • Add the butter to a nonstick saucepan over medium heat and melt. Add the gold cocoa butter and stir until combined. Add the honey, maple syrup, hot sauce and some black pepper. Stir until combined and remove from the heat.
  • Add enough oil to reach more than 3 inches up the side of a Dutch oven or large heavy pot over medium-high heat and bring to 350 degrees F. Shake off any excess flour from the tenders and gently place them in the oil in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot. Cook, while maintaining the oil temperature at around 350 degrees F, until the tenders are golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per batch. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle immediately with salt. Place on skewers with portions of Sunny's 1-2-3 Waffles. Drizzle with golden honey sauce and a shake of gold dust.
  • Separate the egg into 2 bowls. Whisk the yolk, then whisk in the milk followed by the flour.
  • Whisk the egg white until soft peaks form. Fold the white into the batter. Spray a waffle iron with cooking spray, then make waffles.

CRAZY CHICKEN - RICE NOODLE STIR-FRY



Crazy Chicken - Rice Noodle Stir-Fry image

This is chef Ming Tsai's take on a traditional Thai dish. It's called crazy because of it's spiciness. You can always decrease the amount of sambal oelek if you don't like dishes too spicy (or increase it if you like it really spicy!). This recipe is perfect for a busy night. It's quick and simple to prepare. If you want to make this a one dish meal, I think you could probably stir-fry in some broccoli or peas, etc. Enjoy!

CRAZY CHICKEN



Crazy Chicken image

Cubed chicken sauteed with garlic and stir-fry sauce, then broiled to brown, for a simple, Asian-style dish. This is just something that I threw together one night, when I didn't have any bread crumbs for chicken cutlets, and it turned out to be something I make on a regular basis. I usually have egg noodles with this. If you like a lot of garlic, add more.

Categories     appetizer

Time 30m

Yield Ten to 12 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 cup chicken stock
1 3-inch piece ginger, peeled
2 medium cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 small dried red pepper, crushed, or 1/2 teaspoon hot-red-pepper flakes
3 tablespoons soy sauce
juice of 1/2 lemon
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped pickled red ginger slices, plus 2 tablespoons of their syrup (available in Asian groceries)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
4 tablespoons sesame oil
3 cups vegetable oil
6 fresh egg roll wrappers, cut into 2- inch ribbons
1 1/2 ounces rice vermicelli
1 cup cooked shredded chicken
1/2 head iceberg lettuce, cored and cut into thin strips
1 bunch fresh coriander, coarsely chopped
1 cup mung-bean sprouts
7 medium scallions, coarsely chopped
1 cup sesame seeds, toasted and cooled
1 1/2 cups shaved almonds, lightly toasted and cooled
2 tablespoons of pickled red ginger syrup (available in Asian groceries)

Steps:

  • To make the dressing, heat the stock in a small saucepan. Move stock to a blender, then briefly puree a 2-inch piece of the ginger with the stock. Strain and discard the ginger.
  • Mince the remaining ginger and the garlic and add to the strained broth along with the remaining dressing ingredients and whisk to combine. Let the dressing sit for an hour.
  • To make the salad, heat the oil to 400 degrees in a deep frying pan. The oil will dimple slightly but should not smoke. Add half of the wrappers and fry, turning until golden. Drain on paper towels. Allow the oil to return to 400 degrees and repeat with remaining wrappers. Heat the oil again to 400 degrees and fry the vermicelli. The noodles will puff up and turn opaque in 5 to 10 seconds. Turn and let the other side puff up. Remove from oil and drain. Once cool, break the vermicelli into pieces about 3 inches long.
  • In a large bowl, combine the chicken, lettuce, cilantro, sprouts and scallions. Toss well. Add the dressing and toss again. Let sit for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, toss and serve.

Delicious quick and easy chicken. Use gluten free corn flakes for a gluten free chicken delight.

Provided by Tiffany Whittaker

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/3 c plum jam
1 1/2 tsp vegetable oil
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
3 c dry corn flakes gluten free
3 lb chicken

  • 3. Bake the chicken at 350 degrees for one hour.

Tips:

  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the heat.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check if the chicken is cooked by piercing it with a fork or knife. The juices should run clear, with no pink or red color.
  • To prevent the chicken from drying out, baste it frequently with the cooking juices or a mixture of melted butter and herbs.
  • You can also add vegetables to the roasting pan to create a one-pan meal. Some good options include potatoes, carrots, onions, and bell peppers.
  • If you're using a rotisserie chicken, be sure to let it rest for at least 10 minutes before carving it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
