CHEF JOHN'S NASHVILLE HOT CHICKEN



Chef John's Nashville Hot Chicken image

If you've never had Nashville Hot Chicken, we're talking about an ultra-crispy fried chicken doused with a cayenne-infused glaze, and by 'glaze' I mean melted butter and lard. For the record, I've never been to Nashville, so I can't tell you how authentic this is, but it works for me, and is fairly easy to pull off.

Time 10h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup pickle brine
2 tablespoons Louisiana-style hot sauce
1 large egg
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons fine table salt
¼ cup butter
¼ cup lard
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Toss chicken pieces with 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Transfer chicken to a bowl; cover and refrigerate overnight.

Return chicken to marinade, coating all sides; remove chicken from marinade allowing excess to drip back into the bowl. Coat the chicken once again in flour mixture. Place on a rack. Repeat with all chicken pieces. Allow to sit out about 15 minutes to allow coating to dry out a bit.

  • Fill cast iron skillet about 1/3 of the way with vegetable oil. Heat oil to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat. Carefully place chicken into hot oil, skin side down. Maintain an oil temperature of 325 degrees F, adjusting heat as need. Fry until instant read thermometer reads 160 degrees F, 8 to 10 minutes per side.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH HOT AND SWEET DIPPING SAUCE



Grilled Chicken with Hot and Sweet Dipping Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons pepper-coriander root flavor paste, recipe follows
2 to 3 tablespoons Thai fish sauce
3 pounds chicken breasts or breasts and legs, chopped into 10 to 12 pieces
Hot and Sweet Dipping Sauce, recipe follows
2 teaspoons black peppercorns
5 to 6 large cloves garlic, coarsely chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped coriander roots
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon Thai fish sauce
1/2 cup rice or cider vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 to 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons dried red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Place pepper-coriander root flavor paste in a large bowl and stir in the fish sauce. Place the chicken pieces in the marinade and turn to coat well. Let stand, covered, at room temperature for about 1 hour or in the refrigerator and for as long as 3 hours.
  • Heat a grill or preheat the broiler. If using a grill, place the chicken pieces 4 to 5 inches from the flame, bone side down, and grill until the bottom side is starting to brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Then, turn over and cook until golden brown on the other side and the juices run clear when the meat is pierced.
  • If using a broiler, put the chicken pieces in a lightly oiled broiling pan, bone side up, place 4 to 6 inches from the broiler element, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the chicken is starting to brown. Turn the pieces over and broil for another 8 minutes, or until the juices run clear.
  • Transfer the chicken pieces to a platter and serve with dipping sauce and plenty of sticky rice.
  • Place the peppercorns in a mortar with the garlic and pound to a paste. Add the coriander roots and salt and pound to a paste. This will take 5 to 10 minutes; if you have a small blender or other food grinder that can produce a smooth paste, use it instead. Stir in the fish sauce. Will keep in a well-sealed glass jar for up to 4 days.
  • Yield: 2 to 3 tablespoons paste
  • Place the vinegar in a small non-reactive saucepan and heat to a boil. Add the sugar, stirring until it has completely dissolved, then lower the heat to medium-low and let simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, using a mortar and pestle or a bowl and the back of a spoon, pound or mash the garlic and salt to a smooth paste. Stir in the pepper flakes and blend well. Remove the vinegar mixture from the heat and stir in the garlic paste. Let cool to room temperature. Store sealed in a glass jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

  • Place the chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to drain the excess oil.
