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.

Gina's Perfect Roast Chicken with Gravy image

Provided by Patrick and Gina Neely : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 medium onion, peeled and sliced 1/2-inch thick
One 5-pound roasting chicken, rinsed, dried and giblets removed
2 lemon slices
1 sprig fresh thyme, chopped
1 sprig fresh rosemary, chopped
1 sprig fresh sage, chopped
3 large cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
Herb Butter, recipe follows
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup chicken broth
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
1 teaspoon freshly chopped sage leaves
1 teaspoon freshly chopped rosemary leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees F.
  • Lay onion slices down the center of a large cast iron skillet to create 2 rows that are touching.
  • Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper, add lemon slices, thyme, rosemary, sage and garlic cloves.
  • Using your hands, gently separate the skin from the meat of the breast. Evenly spread the Herb Butter on the meat underneath the skin. Take the remaining butter and gently rub the skin. Wash hands and season the skin with salt and pepper. Tie drumsticks together using twine. Place the chicken on the onion slices.
  • Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and roast until the skin is golden brown and crisp, about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Use an instant-read thermometer to make sure the thighs have reached 165 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven. Transfer to a cutting board, tent with foil and let rest.
  • Spoon off as much fat from the pan as possible. Place the pan over high heat and add white wine. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up all the browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Add chicken broth and let reduce to about half, about 4 to 5 minutes. Strain out the onions. Add the gravy back to the pan and keep warm.
  • Cut the twine from the drumsticks and carve. Pour the gravy into a serving bowl and serve with the chicken.
  • In a small bowl, add the butter, chopped thyme, rosemary, and sage. Season with salt and pepper and mix together with a wooden spoon. Reserve.

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN



Oven-Fried Chicken image

You need only a handful of ingredients for Ina Garten's Oven-Fried Chicken recipe from Barefoot Contessa on Food Network; buttermilk keeps the meat extra moist.

Provided by Ina Garten

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.

OVEN FRIED CHICKEN



Oven Fried Chicken image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the rack and chicken
2 1/4 cups broken bagel chips or Melba toast
1 1/3 cups rice-corn crispy cereal, such as Crispix
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 bone-in, skinless chicken pieces, about 6 ounces each (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Spray the rack generously with cooking spray.
  • Finely grind the bagel chips and cereal together in a food processor. Transfer the crumbs to a gallon-size plastic bag. Add the oil, salt, cayenne, paprika and ground pepper and toss to mix thoroughly. Whisk the light mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together in a medium shallow bowl.
  • Add the chicken to the mayonnaise mixture and turn to coat all the pieces evenly. Drop the chicken into the plastic bag, seal and shake until each piece is evenly coated. Place the coated pieces on the prepared rack. Spray the chicken pieces evenly with cooking spray.
  • Bake until the coating crisps and browns and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the pieces registers 160 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Transfer to a platter and serve hot or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy chicken, make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken pieces. You can check the oil temperature with a kitchen thermometer or by dropping a small piece of chicken in the oil. If the chicken sizzles immediately, the oil is ready.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry, resulting in soggy chicken.
  • Fry the chicken in batches if necessary. This will help prevent overcrowding and ensure that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in more tender and flavorful chicken.

Conclusion:

Pat and Gina's Oven-Fried Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside, and the flavorful breading adds a delicious touch. With a few simple tips, you can make sure that your oven-fried chicken turns out perfectly every time.
