Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 55m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup milk
1 beaten egg
1 cup flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sage
1/2 teaspoon tarragon
1 frying chicken, cut up
1/4 teaspoon oil or 1/4 teaspoon shortening

Steps:

  • Combine milk and egg and set aside. Combine flour, salt, paprika, pepper, sage and tarragon in a plastic bag. Add a few pieces of chicken to the dry mixture and shake to coat.
  • Dip the chicken in the egg and milk mixture. Shake the wet chicken and then coat a second time in the flour mixture. This can be baked in the oven at 375 to 400 for 45 minutes, made on the stove top, or in an electric frying pan on medium high heat.
  • Brown chicken on all sides then reduce heat to medium low. Continue cooking until chicken is tender (app. 35 - 45) minutes. Do not cover. Turn chicken several times during cooking and drain on a paper towel when done.
  • To deep fry heat three inches of oil to 365 in a deep fryer or deep saucepan and fry the chicken for 15 - 18 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Cooking uncovered reduces the moisture in the pan and keeps the chicken coating crispy. A splatter screen for the top of the pan is helpful in keeping down the mess.

KENTUCKY DEEP FRYER FRIED CHICKEN RECIPE



Kentucky Deep Fryer Fried Chicken Recipe image

Adapted from a recipe found on the internet and made in my vintage sunbeam fryer/cooker. This is awesome! For the chicken pieces, make sure that they are not too big: whole drumstick, whole thigh, but the breast part should be chopped into two. Its also helpful to use the fryer cover-it helps the meat cook through properly.

GOOD OLE' DOWN HOME IN GEORGIA SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN

Make and share this Good Ole' Down Home in Georgia Southern Fried Chicken recipe from Food.com.

Provided by 2Bleu

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

chicken, cut up
garlic powder
salt and pepper
buttermilk (or heavy cream or half and half)
lard, for frying (about 1-2 cups, you can substitute with vegetable shortening)
flour, for dredging

Steps:

  • Place cut up chicken in a large bowl. Season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat. Add buttermilk, again tossing to coat. Set aside (you can cover and refrigerate overnight).
  • Place lard and bacon grease into a large deep cast-iron skillet or dutch oven (you only need about an inch of melted oil). Set on stovetop over medium-high heat and get oil temperature to 350°F.
  • Place flour into a plastic grocery bag. Shake excess buttermilk from a piece of chicken and place into bag of flour. Coat chicken with flour. (A simple method is to hold sides of bag and steadily and gently roll back and forth like cleaning a bowling ball.).
  • Dip an edge of the floured piece into the lard; if it sizzles, it's ready. Begin to flour remaining pieces and carefully place them into the pan/dutch oven.
  • Repeat until the pan is full or all pieces are used. (A whole chicken generally requires two batches and you may need to add just a small amount more of lard for second batch). Cover pot with lid and simmer for 5-7 minutes.
  • Turn chicken over, cover and simmer again for 5-7 minutes. Remove lid and continue cooking until cooked through, or internal temperature of chicken reaches 175°F.
  • Transfer cooked pieces to a plate lined with paper towels or a baking rack with a towel underneath to catch the drippings. If desired, immediately give a light sprinkling of salt.

Provided by McCarthy

Categories     Poultry

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

150 ml buttermilk
1 lemon, grated rind
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon coarse grain mustard
1 teaspoon dried herbes de provence
8 small chicken drumsticks
50 g plain flour

Steps:

  • Mix the buttermilk with the lemon rind, garlic, celery salt, pepper, paprika, mustard and herbs. Mix well, pour over chicken. Marinate for 3 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to Gas 7/220C.
  • Place the flour on a plate, remove the chicken from the marinade and roll the pieces in the flour. Place the drumsticks on a lightly oiled baking tray and spray with a little oil. Roast for 15 minutes in the oven then spray again with a little more oil.
  • Cook for a further 15-20 minutes until the chicken is golden and no longer pink in the centre. Serve with oven chips and ketchup.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven for frying the chicken. This will help to maintain a consistent temperature and prevent the chicken from burning.
  • Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper before frying. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Use a thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through before removing it from the oil. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
