The Kitchen Magpie's Crispy Oven Fried Chicken - find out the secret to the most amazing oven fried chicken you will ever eat! Just look at that crispy skin! No crazy batter, either!

Provided by Karlynn Johnston

Categories     Dinner

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/3 cups of flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons seasoning salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon pepper
2 or 3 eggs
1/3 cup of margarine or butter
one chicken (cut into 8 pieces (2 drumsticks, 2 thighs and the breasts cut into 4))

Steps:

  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together.
  • Grease a baking sheet really well and set aside.
  • Beat the eggs and place in a small bowl. Line up your bowls and your baking sheet in this order from right to left; egg, flour, then baking sheet. This will make sense once you start dipping, for a messy cook like me, I have to try and keep things clean once in a blue moon.
  • First, dip your chicken into the flour mixture and cover it completely.
  • Then go to the egg mixture, and cover it again completely, this time with egg.
  • Back to the flour mixture to cover it completely again, trying not to disturb the two other layers you just did.
  • Place the chicken on the baking sheet, and repeat with all the pieces of chicken until they are all done. Now it is time to put them into the fridge and let them sit for 30 minutes. DO NOT skip this part, it helps the layers adhere to not only the chicken, but themselves. And make sure you let the chicken sit in the fridge, in the cold.
  • After the 30 minutes, melt the margarine and pour over the chicken pieces.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Bake the chicken for 40-45 minutes until the breast meat reaches 165 °F and the thigh meat is 180 °F.
  • Remove and serve!

CHICKEN FRIED CHICKEN WITH WHITE GRAVY



Chicken Fried Chicken with White Gravy image

A true Southern comfort food, legend has it that chicken fried chicken was created by German immigrants in Texas during the 19th century when they adapted the wiener schnitzel by using beef instead of veal that was then twice-breaded and fried like fried chicken. In reality, chicken fried chicken and its cousin, chicken fried steak, are more closely related to Southern fried chicken, already popular throughout the American South by the 19th century. Over the years, the chicken fried steak technique was also used on chicken breasts, pounded thin and soaked in buttermilk, resulting in crispy, tender chicken. Like its steak counterpart, chicken fried chicken should be served with a peppery white gravy.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
2 teaspoons paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 large egg
Canola, vegetable or peanut oil, for frying
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Fit cooling racks into 2 baking sheets.
  • Place 1 chicken breast in a one-gallon resealable plastic bag with the seal left open (alternatively, place between 2 pieces of plastic wrap). Pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin until it is 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a shallow dish. Whisk together the buttermilk, hot sauce and egg in a medium bowl. Set up a dredging station by arranging the chicken, dry ingredients, wet ingredients and prepared baking sheet in an assembly line. Dredge 1 chicken breast in the dry ingredients to coat, then dip in the wet ingredients and shake off any excess. Dredge once again in the dry ingredients to coat and transfer to one of the cooling racks. Repeat with the remaining chicken.
  • Fill a deep cast-iron skillet with 3/4 to 1 inch of oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Working in 2 batches, fry the chicken until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Place on the second cooling rack and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
  • For the gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking continuously, until light brown, about 2 minutes. Pour in the milk in a steady stream while whisking. Add 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper, then the vinegar. Cook at a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Serve the chicken fried chicken topped with the white gravy.
