CRISPIEST FRIED CHICKEN



Crispiest Fried Chicken image

Inspired by Korean-style fried chicken, we tossed ours in rice flour, dipped it in batter, and fried it not once but twice for extra crunch and an even, golden color.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole chicken (3 pounds), cut into 10 pieces (breasts halved crosswise)
1/2 cup rice flour, plus more for sprinkling
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, such as safflower, for frying
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, sprinkle chicken with rice flour; season generously with kosher salt and pepper, tossing to coat. Pour oil into a large pot to a depth of 2 inches. Place over medium-high heat until a thermometer registers 350 degrees.
  • Whisk together both flours, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Whisk in 3/4 cup water until a smooth, thin batter forms.
  • Working in batches, dip pieces of chicken into batter, allowing excess to drip off. Transfer to oil and fry until pale golden, 6 minutes. Remove and shake lightly in a colander to drain; transfer to paper towels. Bring oil temperature back to 350 degrees, then return chicken to oil and fry a second time until golden brown and a thermometer inserted into thickest parts (avoiding bones) registers 160 degrees, about 6 minutes for small pieces, about 8 minutes for large. Transfer to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet; season with flaky salt. Serve warm or room temperature.

Categories     How To

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Cooking oil (for deep-frying)
1 cup all-purpose flour (140 grams)
2 Tbsp rice flour (12 grams)
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt (optional)
1 cup ice-cold water
1 cup rice flour (110 grams)
4 Tbsp cornstarch (30 grams)
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt (optional)
1/2 cup ice-cold water (add more as needed)

Steps:

  • Place the flour/starch, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir to mix everything. Only prepare your batter when you are ready to fry your food.
  • Pour about 1 1/2 to 2-inch of oil into a stainless steel pot or Dutch oven. Preheat the oil to 330 F. It helps if you have deep-fryer thermometer if not, dip a stick end of wooden spatula, bamboo skewer, or chopsticks into the oil. If there are steady bubbles around it, the oil is most likely more than 330 F, but the temperature will drop once you put in the things you are going to fry. As long as it doesn't bubble vigorously, if it is, lower the heat a bit and test again
  • Pour in the ice cold water into the flour mixture and use a chopstick to stir. Do not over stir with all-purpose flour. It's okay to have some lumps in the batter. If you over mix the flour batter, it will turn out gummy and absorbs too much oil. If you are preparing gluten-free batter, this is not an issue because cornstarch doesn't have gluten in it
  • Coat the food with the batter and fry the food. Another important note is not to overcrowd and frying too many. If you lower the oil temperature too much, the batter will be greasy, soggy, and almost definitely will not stay crispy (if at all). This step is to cook the food inside the batter. Depending on what you are frying, follow the instruction on the time
  • Remove from the oil to a rack. Let them cool down for at least 10 minutes before you go for the second frying. You can even stop at this step if you are prepping ahead. Keep the half-fried food in the fridge and do the second frying just right before serving, whenever that is
  • Remove any crumbs from the oil and bring it back up to hot again over high heat. This time we need about 375 F. Use a thermometer if you have one. If you don't have one, again, use the stick end of wooden spatula, bamboo skewer or chopstick to test the oil. The bubbles will be steady. When it's ready, fry the food for the second time. This round should be quicker. The food will turn golden brown too. This step is to crisp up the food further
  • Place the fried food on a rack set on a baking sheet. You can keep the rest warm in an oven at around 200 F and serve when you are done with frying all

RICE FLOUR CHICKEN (CRISP AND CRUNCHY BATTER)



Rice Flour Chicken (Crisp and Crunchy Batter) image

I got this recipe while watching my Malaysian roommate cook years ago. Personally I like it best with smaller bits of chicken, great for taking to pot-luck dinners or picnics :) I didn't count the marinading time in the preparation time. Makes far more/less pieces depending on size of pieces used. NOTE: I forgot to make it clear in my instruction that this works best with either small chunks of chicken fillet or chicken wings, and suits pieces that will cook quickly above those that require a longer cooking time, I hope that this clarification helps :)

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Rice Flour: Opt for a finely ground rice flour to ensure a smooth and crispy batter.
  • Batter Consistency: The batter should be slightly thick and coat the chicken pieces evenly. If it's too thin, add more rice flour; if it's too thick, add a little water.
  • Seasoning the Batter: Don't forget to season the batter with salt, pepper, and other spices of your choice to enhance the flavor.
  • Coating the Chicken: Make sure the chicken pieces are thoroughly coated with the batter before frying. This will help the batter adhere and create a crispy crust.
  • Frying Temperature: Maintain the oil temperature between 350°F and 375°F (175°C to 190°C) for optimal crispiness. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature accurately.
  • Frying Time: Fry the chicken pieces in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking. Cook until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Draining Excess Oil: After frying, drain the chicken pieces on paper towels to remove excess oil. This will help keep them crispy and prevent sogginess.

Conclusion:
