Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

¼ cup shortening, or as needed
¼ cup butter, or as needed
½ cup vegetable oil, or as needed
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
10 crackers, or as needed, crushed
¼ cup cornmeal, or as needed
1 teaspoon dried sage
dried tarragon
½ teaspoon garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

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).

CHICKEN FRIED WITH BREAD CRUMBS

Provided by Trish Hall

Categories     easy, quick, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs, made by cutting the crusts off white bread and swirling the bread in a food processor or blender
1 large chicken breast, split, boned and skinned, and cut into strips (or 4 fillets of fish)
3 tablespoons butter
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and lightly beat with a fork. Put the flour in another bowl, and add the salt and pepper. In the third bowl, put the bread crumbs.
  • Dip a piece of chicken in the flour, covering both sides. Gently shake off any excess. Dip the floured chicken in the egg and let the extra drip off. Then lay it in the bread crumbs, and scoop some over to cover the top. Press down gently all over, then lift from the bowl and set on a plate. Do that for all the chicken.
  • Melt the butter in a large pan over medium heat, and when the white foam floats to the top, use a spoon to skim it off. Then put in the chicken and cook for about 7 minutes on each side, or until the crumbs are nicely browned. (Fish will take less time.) Use a spatula to turn the chicken over, and cook 5 more minutes or so. Serve with lemon wedges.

  • To achieve a crispy outer layer and juicy interior, ensure the chicken pieces are evenly coated with breadcrumbs and cooking spray.
  • Use a wire rack placed over a baking sheet to allow air to circulate, promoting even cooking and a crispy texture.
  • For a healthier alternative, opt for whole-wheat breadcrumbs or a mixture of breadcrumbs and crushed nuts for a unique flavor and added crunch.
  • Experiment with different seasonings and herbs to create variations in flavor. Some popular choices include garlic powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, or Italian seasoning.
  • For a golden brown crust, brush the chicken pieces with melted butter or olive oil before baking. This adds a glossy sheen and enhances the flavor.
  • To ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The safe internal temperature for chicken is 165°F (74°C).
