Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper, and place them in a deep-sided baking dish.

- Place the flour, 1 tablespoon of cayenne pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste in a large plastic zipper bag, and shake well to combine. Place 2 or 3 pieces of chicken at a time into the plastic bag, and shake well to coat the chicken pieces with seasoned flour.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Gently place chicken pieces into the hot oil, and fry until chicken is cooked through and golden brown, 8-10 minutes (breasts and wings) or 13 to 15 minutes (thighs and drumsticks).

THAI SPICY BASIL CHICKEN FRIED RICE
This is a staple of Thai cooking. Adjust the spices to your own tastes for a really great use for leftover rice!! I get the basil from a local Asian market. It has a different flavor than that of regular basil and makes all the difference in this recipe. It is fast and fairly easy to make, but requires constant stirring.

Time 40m
Yield 6 servings

Steps:
- For the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the ponzu, hot sauce and stir-fry seasoning.
- For the wontons: In a bowl, add the chicken, scallions and stir-fry seasoning. Mix with a spoon until well combined.
- Put a wonton wrapper onto your work surface. (Keep the wonton wrappers covered with a damp towel so they don't dry out.) Place 1 heaping teaspoon chicken mixture in the center of the wrapper. Coat the edges of the wrapper with a little water using your finger or a brush. Fold the circle to form a half moon, pressing out any air bubbles Set aside, covered with a damp towel, while you make the rest.
- When you are ready to cook, place a large, nonstick skillet fitted with a lid over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, place the wontons in a single layer in the pan; they should be close together but not touching. Depending on the size of the skillet, you may need to cook the dumplings off in 2 or 3 batches. Cook, uncovered, until the bottoms are browned, about 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low, carefully pour in 2 tablespoons water and immediately cover the pan with a lid. Cook until the wontons are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and serve hot with the dipping sauce.
POLLO DIABLO (GARLICKY, SPICY, DEEP-FRIED CHICKEN)
Steps:
- In a Dutch oven or deep-fryer heat oil to 375 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites with a handheld mixer until frothy. Place the chicken pieces into the egg whites, mixing until each piece is covered. Sprinkle with a pinch each of garlic salt and freshly ground black pepper and stir to distribute.
- Dredge the chicken pieces in cornstarch, draining most of the egg white from chicken by picking up a handful and allowing the egg white to drain while moving to the cornstarch. Cover the pieces completely by turning in corn starch.
- Pick up the chicken in handfuls and transfer from hand to hand to shake off most of the starch. If using a deep-fryer place the pieces into a fry basket. Lower into hot fry oil and shake basket after 10 to 15 seconds to make sure the pieces separate as they cook. Fry until the pieces float on top of the oil and are light brown, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. The chicken should appear somewhat dry, not oily, when the basket is lifted. If frying in a Dutch oven place pieces of chicken in hot oil and fry until light brown, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- For the garlic mixture:
- In a small bowl, add all the garlic mixture ingredients and toss to thoroughly combine.
- Place 1 tablespoon of hot chili oil and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil into a hot wok or saute pan over medium to high heat. Immediately put 4 tablespoons of the garlic mixture and 1/3 cup chopped green onions into the oil, stirring with a spoon to lightly cook the garlic mixture, being careful not to brown. Add approximately 2 cups of the fried chicken and toss to cover with the sauce. Finish them with a pinch of garlic salt. Toss once more and serve. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
SPICY ASIAN FRIED CHICKEN WINGS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the wings with salt and pepper and place onto a baking sheet. Place into the oven and roast until crispy and the fat has rendered out, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool.
- For the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the dark miso paste, white miso paste, 1/4 cup lukewarm water, mirin, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, garlic powder, brown sugar and 1 tablespoon sambal. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until reduced and the sauce has slightly thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the honey and stir well.
- Heat a large, heavy-based pot with 3 to 4 inches of peanut oil to 350 degrees F for deep frying.
- Wash the wings under cold running water, and then drain and pat dry with some paper towels. In a large mixing bowl, mix the cornstarch, flour, garlic powder, salt and ground ginger together. Then lightly dredge the wings in the mixture. Shake off any excess, and then fry the wings, in batches, until lightly golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and set aside on a wire rack.
- Toss the wings with the glaze and serve.

Steps:
- Soak chicken livers in mixture of buttermilk, hot sauce, and worcestershire sauce for at LEAST 2 hours in the fridge.
- For the sauce you want to mix mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, old bay seasoning and worcestershire sauce in a bowl until fully incorperated. You want to make it before you fry the livers to give the flavors time to mingle. Place in fridge until just about to serve.
- In a bowl combined corn flour, all purpose flour, black pepper, cayenne pepper, old bay and creole seasoning.
- Add your peanut oil to a large sauce pan. Make sure it's large enough to fit the livers, but leave enough room in between so they are not too crowded. Or you can do them in batches.
- Roll the livers in the dry seasoned mixture and place in the hot pan. Try to keep the heat between Med-high to Med.
- Cook about 8-10 minutes on each side. It depends on the size of the livers. Turn down the temp if they start getting too brown too fast.
- If not sure on their being done, you can just brown them on each side and then pop them in a 350F for about 10 minutes.
- Once done, serve immediately with a generous spoon full of dipping sauce.

FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH SPICY MAYONNAISE
Steps:
- Pour the kefir, or buttermilk, or yogurt into a small dish and stir in the ½ teaspoon of hot smoked paprika, ½ teaspoon of salt, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and maple syrup. Peel the garlic and mince or grate it in, too. Give a good stir, then add the chicken thigh and turn it in the marinade to make sure it's well coated. Cover the dish, then leave for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days in the fridge. (If you simply cannot wait that long, leave the chicken in its marinade out on the kitchen countertop for 20-40 minutes.)
- Take the chicken, in its marinade, out of the fridge in good time to get to room temperature before you start to cook it.
- Mix the flour with the remaining ¼ teaspoon each of hot smoked paprika and salt in a shallow dish. Lift the chicken out of the marinade, but don't try and shake it off. Dredge both sides of the chicken in the seasoned flour, then dip briefly back into the marinade and dredge again. This double-dredging is essential to get a thick, shaggy coating. You can leave the coated chicken in the flour dish until you fry.
- Mix the garlic mayonnaise with the Chili Crisp oil and honey, and spread both pieces of a split burger bun (or a couple of slices of bread) with it. Put a plate lined with paper towels by (but not dangerously near) the stove, if you want to get rid of any excess fat once the chicken's cooked.
- Pour enough oil into your chosen pan to come about 1½ inches up the sides. Heat until a small piece of bread becomes golden and crisp almost instantly; if you want to be precise, and have a food thermometer, then you want the fat to be at 375ºF when the chicken goes in (and about 350ºF as it cooks).
- Using tongs, gently lower the chicken thigh into the hot oil, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, by which time the coating should be deep gold and very crisp and the chicken completely cooked through. Remove to the waiting paper-lined plate, remembering to take the pan of oil off the heat, and leave to stand for a couple of minutes while you shred some iceberg lettuce and get out your pickles. Put a handful of shredded lettuce on top of the mayo on the bottom slice, top with the fried chicken, add kimchi, pink-pickled onions and any other pickles you want. Scatter with a bit more lettuce and squidge on the top of the bun or second slice of bread. Go in cautiously: I have more than once burned my mouth.

- Make sure the chicken is dry before frying. This will help it crisp up and prevent it from splattering.
- Fry the chicken in small batches. This will help prevent the chicken from steaming and ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
