BURTON'S SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN WITH WHITE GRAVY



Burton's Southern Fried Chicken with White Gravy image

Breaded buttermilk fried chicken and a pan-drippings gravy with milk or cream. The gravy is great on the chicken, but mash up some potatoes with some butter and cream and bake up some cornbread or biscuits and you have the quintessential southern meal with some northern urban twists.

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 cups buttermilk
1 teaspoon onion powder
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
¼ cup chopped fresh tarragon
¼ cup chopped fresh sage
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, halved
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

ground black pepper to taste
2 cups grapeseed oil for frying
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup quick-mixing flour (such as Wondra®)
2 cups whole milk
1 pinch salt and ground white pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk buttermilk, onion powder, parsley, tarragon, sage, paprika, and 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper in a bowl. Place chicken breast pieces in buttermilk mixture, stir to coat, and marinate in refrigerator at least 8 hours (up to 2 days). Drain chicken pieces in a colander.

  • Press chicken pieces into unseasoned flour, dip into egg mixture, and place into plastic bag of seasoned flour. Close bag and shake to coat chicken.
  • Fry coated chicken in hot oil until golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes on the first side and 6 to 8 minutes on the second side. Drain on a rack.
  • Drain oil, leaving 1/4 cup oil in skillet. Reduce heat to medium. Whisk quick-mixing flour and milk into hot oil until combined. Bring gravy to a simmer and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened and creamy, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and white pepper. Serve gravy with fried chicken.
