OVEN FRIED CHICKEN



Oven Fried Chicken image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds bone-in chicken parts, skin removed (breasts halved crosswise)
2 cups dill pickle juice (from a 32-ounce jar of pickles)
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 cups rice cereal squares
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1 teaspoon dried dill
Ranch dressing, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the chicken in a large resealable plastic bag set in a baking dish. Pour the pickle juice into the bag. Seal the bag and massage gently. Refrigerate 1 to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the eggs and mustard in a medium bowl; set aside. Pulse the rice cereal in a food processor to make fine crumbs. Heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the cereal crumbs, panko, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the crumb mixture is a deep golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the garlic powder, celery seeds and dill. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Place a rimmed baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat to 425 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the pickle juice and pat dry with paper towels. One piece at a time, dip the chicken in the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off, then coat in the crumb mixture, pressing with your hands to adhere.
  • Remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and brush with the remaining 1/4 cup vegetable oil. Place the chicken on the baking sheet and bake until golden and a thermometer inserted into the breasts registers 160 degrees F and the thighs 170 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. Serve with ranch dressing.

Categories     main-dish

Time 10h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 chickens (3 pounds each), cut in 8 serving pieces
1 quart buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil or vegetable shortening

Steps:

  • Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture. Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed stockpot to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 360 degrees F on a thermometer.
  • Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use a combination of flours: All-purpose flour, cornstarch, and bread crumbs create a crispy coating that stays crunchy even after baking.
  • Season the flour mixture well: Don't be shy with the spices! A good blend of garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper will give your chicken plenty of flavor.
  • Use buttermilk: Buttermilk helps tenderize the chicken and gives it a slightly tangy flavor. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Coat the chicken in flour, then buttermilk, then flour again: This three-step process ensures that the chicken is evenly coated and that the coating stays on during baking.
  • Bake the chicken at a high temperature: This will help the chicken cook quickly and evenly. 425°F (220°C) is a good temperature to aim for.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure there is enough space between each piece of chicken so that the air can circulate and the chicken can cook evenly.
  • Bake the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through: This will take about 20-25 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken pieces.

Conclusion:

This oven-fried chicken recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy your favorite fried chicken flavor without all the grease. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it's perfect for serving with your favorite sides. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a crowd-pleasing dish for a party, this oven-fried chicken recipe is sure to be a hit.
