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.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Melt shortening and butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish in the preheating oven. Once melted, pour enough vegetable oil into the baking dish until oil is about 1/2-inch deep. Keep oil mixture in the oven while preparing remaining ingredients.
- Beat egg and water in a shallow dish. Combine crackers, cornmeal, sage, tarragon, and garlic powder in a large resealable plastic bag. Season with salt and pepper; seal and shake bag to mix. Dip chicken thighs in egg mixture and place 2 to 3 thighs in the plastic bag; shake to coat. Repeat with remaining chicken. Arrange chicken thighs skin-side down, in preheated baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Flip chicken thighs and continue baking until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

SOUTHERN-STYLE OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN
I call this America's best-loved oven-fried chicken. The secret is in the breading, which makes the chicken super moist and flavorful, herby and golden brown. -Elaina Morgan, Rickman, Tennessee

Tips:
- For extra crispy chicken, use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornstarch in the coating. The cornstarch will help create a shatteringly crisp crust. - Be sure to use a light touch when dredging the chicken in the flour mixture. Over-handling the chicken will make the breading tough. - Place the chicken on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to allow air to circulate all around the chicken, resulting in even cooking and crispy skin. - Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. Give the chicken pieces plenty of space so that they can cook evenly. - Bake the chicken at a high temperature (425°F) for a short amount of time. This will help to create a crispy crust without overcooking the chicken. - Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through before removing it from the oven. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165°F. - Serve the chicken hot with your favorite dipping sauce.Conclusion:
Oven-fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make alternative to traditional fried chicken. By following the tips above, you can create oven-fried chicken that is crispy, juicy, and flavorful. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or green beans.
