Best 7 Fried Chitterlings Chitlins Recipes

FRIED CHITTERLINGS RECIPE - HOW TO MAKE FRIED CHITTERLINGS

Steps:

• Start off by cleaning and preparing your chitterlings for cooking. Examine each chitlin thoroughly removing by hand all foreign matter. The best way to do this is under running water. Under running water, you need to repeatedly pick clean each chitlin. While picking clean the chitlins you should remove extra fat and any specks that you see. Finish the cleaning process off by washing your chitterlings 3 or 4 times.
• Place your chitterlings in a large pot, add 4 to 5 cups of water, chopped onions, bay leaves, minced garlic, vinegar, red pepper, and other seasonings as desired.
• Simmer over medium-low heat for 2 hours or until chitterlings are tender. Remove from heat and rinse under cold running water. Cut the boiled chitterlings into oyster size pieces and set aside.
• Beat egg with 1 tablespoon water. Now dip each piece of chitlin into the egg mixture then roll in crumbs.
• Fry chitlins in hot oil at about 370° until golden brown.

CREOLE CHITTERLINGS (CHITLINS)

Steps:

• Clean the chitterlings by removing all the specks and fat with specks on them. Rinse in several changes of salted water. Place them in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, drain, rinse and fill with enough water to cover again.
• Return to the heat and add the potato, onions, green pepper, garlic, celery and vinegar. Season with salt, bay leaf, Creole seasoning and red pepper flakes. Cover and simmer over medium heat for 3 to 4 hours. Chitterlings should appear clear to white in color.
• Cut the chitterlings into 1 inch pieces and return to the pot. Pour out most of the cooking liquid. Discard the potato, onions, celery and bay leaf. Heat the chitterlings through and serve with your favorite side dishes. Store the leftovers in the refrigerator. Like so many other great soul food dishes, chitlins taste even better after the flavor has soaked in for a few hours.

Chitterlings should retain some fat, so be careful to leave some on. After each chitterling has been cleaned, soak in two cold water baths for a few minutes. The second water should be clearer. If not, soak in one more bath.
