HONEY & ROSEMARY FRIED CHICKEN



Honey & Rosemary Fried Chicken image

I loved the light, crispy batter and the combination of flavors--there is something very appealing about the combination of garlic and honey! There wasn't enough flour or buttermilk to coat 3-4 pounds of chicken.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 -4 lb) chicken, cut into 8 to 10 pieces or 3 lbs chicken pieces
1 -1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt (or less!)
1 tablespoon white pepper

peanut oil (for frying)
3/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon butter
1 sprig rosemary, chopped

Steps:

  • Wash chicken and pat dry.
  • Mix flour with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Dip chicken in seasoned flour, then buttermilk, then seasoned flour again. Set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil to 325°F over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, beginning with the dark meat. Keeping oil at 325°F, cook each side for 5 to 6 minutes covered and then 5 to 6 minutes uncovered, for a total cooking time of 20 to 24 minutes. Drain chicken on a wire rack.
