Best 11 Fried Biscuits Recipes

FRIED CHICKEN BISCUITS WITH HOT HONEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare the biscuits: In a bowl, use a fork to mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add butter and use the fork to mash it into the flour until the mixture resembles large, lumpy crumbs. Stir in milk until a dough comes together.
• Flour your hands, then gently gather and knead the dough in the bowl for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it springs back slightly to the touch. (If the dough is sticky, sprinkle additional flour as needed.) Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and rest dough in fridge for half hour.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough to 1 to 1 1/2 inch thickness. Use a floured knife or round cutter to cut 6 biscuits, about 3 1/2 inches wide. Reroll the scraps and cut again as needed.
• Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have puffed up and the tops are slightly golden. Let cool completely on a wired rack at room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container if not using until the next day.
• Prepare the chicken: Trim excess fat and any membranes from the meat, then lightly hammer the thickest parts of the thighs with a mallet or rolling pin. Season each side with salt.
• Mix flour, cayenne and salt in one wide bowl. Beat eggs in a second wide bowl, and place panko in a third. Dip each chicken thigh in flour, coating it all over and patting off the excess, then in egg, allowing extra egg to drip off, then in panko, making sure each thigh is entirely coated in bread crumbs, and using your hands to press loose crumbs into any places where they look scarce.
• In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, pour in oil to a 2-inch depth and heat to 350 degrees. Fry 2 thighs at a time, flipping them over every two minutes or so, until golden brown and crisp all over, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a wire rack set over a paper towel-lined sheet pan and season lightly with salt. Let cool entirely at room temperature, at least 1 hour. At this point, you can assemble the sandwiches or transfer the rack to the fridge and leave the chicken uncovered overnight.
• Assemble the sandwiches: When both the chicken and biscuits have cooled (or the next day), mix together soft butter, honey and hot sauce until smooth. Cut open cooled biscuits, smear each cut side with honey butter, and sandwich with a piece of chicken. If traveling, loosely wrap each sandwich in a piece of parchment paper and pack side by side in a hard container, in a single layer, so the sandwiches aren't crushed. Serve with additional hot sauce and pickles on the side.

APPALACHIAN COAL MINERS DOUGHNUTS "FRIED BISCUITS"

Steps:

• 1. Ok I am going to write the directions as written by my Daddy's Mom. He loved these and would make them all the time (well the times my Mommoo (mom) didn't, this is his momma's recipe :)
• 2. Here's what i fry mine in, either my 8 inch round 4 inch deep cast iron skillet or my med. cast iron dutch oven.
• 3. Mix up everything for your biscuit flour (Self-Rising Flour)
• 4. Heat some grease in a big cast iron pot to cook the dough in **Heat oil in pot at least 3 inches deep or deep fryer (you can pay fry these but they come out more flat and don't have that round ball look to them but taste the same. If you pan fry use about 2 inches oil)
• 5. Mix up everything **Mix flour, water, buttermilk, baking soda, salt. Mix well, batter should be on the wet side just a little thicker then a cake batter.
• 6. Take a big stir spoon and a small stir spoon and use the big one to get dough and the small one to scrape it off. **Take a large metal serving spoon and scoop up dough and use another spoon to roll the dough off into the oil. Get your large spoon with dough right at the oil before rolling the dough into it. You might have to practice some but it is just like making a big hushpuppie. You can also use a Ice Cream scoop.
• 7. Fry until they look done and roll them over. take out of grease. **Fry until golden brown and flip over. When golden on both sides remove to paper towels or a wire rack (rack works best)
• 8. If making the doughnut dust with confecrioners sugar or cinnamon and sugar, drizzle with honey or molasas. I love love love them with confectioners sugar and homemade strawberry jam and BUTTER! I also like to make them hushpuppie size and roll them in sugar for a quick sweet treat. If making busciuts remember to leave out sugar, these are a fun switch up to gravy and biscuits :)
• 9. This recipe can also be made into biscuit bread (leave out the sugar), just put in an oven safe pan and bake at 400 until top is brown. I bake mine in cast iron just like my cornbread. Then just tear apart into biscuit size pieces and serve with gravy.
