Gussies's Fried Chicken With Pecan Honey Glaze image

This is one of Paula Deen's recipes. It reminds me very much of sweet & sour Chinese chicken! If you have a deep fat-fryer, by all means use it.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 1/2 lb) frying chickens or 1 (3 1/2 lb) your favorite chicken parts
2 large eggs
salt and pepper
garlic powder
vegetable oil
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
brown paper bag

Steps:

  • Rinse the chicken and pat it dry.
  • Beat the eggs in a 9x13" dish.
  • Lay the chicken pieces in the dish, and sprinkle with salt, pepper & garlic powder.
  • Turn the chicken and season the other side, then slosh the chicken parts around in the egg until well coated.
  • Put enough oil in cast iron pot or electric skillet to come just halfway up the sides of the chicken parts.
  • Heat the oil until just smoking, about 375°F.
  • Put the flour in a paper bag, add the chicken pieces, a few at a time, and shake to coat well.
  • Remove the chicken with tongs and place it it in the hot oil.
  • Cover the pan, leaving a crack for steam to escape, lower the heat to 325F for electric skillet and cook for 10 minutes.
  • Turn the chicken with tongs, cover again (leaving the lid open a crack) and cook for 10 minutes longer.
  • Very large pieces may need to be cooked longer.
  • Drain the chicken on paper towels and transfer to platter.
  • To make the glaze, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat.
  • Whisk in the honey until well blended.
  • Bring to a simmer and add the pecans.
  • Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Ladle the glaze over the hot fried chicken and serve.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The chicken is incredibly flavorful and the glaze is to die for. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and it was a hit with the whole family.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of pecans, but I'm so glad I did! The glaze is amazing, and the pecans add a subtle nutty flavor that complements the chicken perfectly. My family loved it!
