Categories     Easy/Medium

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 medium chicken breasts (boneless, skinless, halved into 6 cutlets)
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk
1 Tbsp hot sauce ((we use Frank's Red Hot brand))
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
Oil for frying - vegetable oil (canola oil or peanut oil)
6 burger buns (buttered and toasted)
6 green lettuce leaves
1 large tomato (sliced)
2 dill pickles (sliced into rings)
Mayonnaise (or your favorite sauce)

Steps:

  • Pound chicken cutlets between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even 1/2" thickness so they cook more evenly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together marinade ingredients. Add Chicken, turning to coat then cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours or overnight.
  • In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together breading ingredients: flour, salt, pepper, baking powder, paprika, onion powder and garlic powder. Remove a piece of chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off and dip chicken into flour mixture, pressing it on with your hands to coat well. Transfer to a wire rack.
  • Heat 1 " oil in a soup pot or dutch oven to 350˚F. Just before frying chicken, dip it into the seasoned flour again for a thick and shaggy exterior.Add chicken, 2 pieces at a time for a smaller pot so you don't crowd and reduce the temperature of the oil too quickly.
  • Place chicken into the oil one by one. Adjust the flame to keep the oil temperature at 300-325˚F. Cook 3-4 minutes on the first side or until browned and crisp then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes on the second side or until cooked through and chicken is browned and crisp all over.
  • Transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet. The internal temperature will continue to rise as it rests. The final resting temperature of the chicken should reach 165˚F.
  • Lightly butter and toast the cut sides of your buns and build your crispy chicken sandwiches with desired toppings.

Time 45m

Yield 6 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 cups buttermilk, shaken
1 shallot, peeled, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced crosswise
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 jalapeño pepper (with seeds), halved lengthwise
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 small skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 ounces each)
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons smoked Spanish paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon celery salt
2 (48-ounce) bottles canola oil
6 potato hamburger buns, toasted, for serving
Buttermilk Herb Mayo, for serving (recipe follows)
6 Bibb lettuce leaves
Kosher dill pickles, such as Claussen, thinly sliced, for serving
1 cup good mayonnaise, such as Hellmann's
2 tablespoons buttermilk, shaken
1 teaspoon good white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions, white and green parts
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1/8 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, shallot, garlic, jalapeño, 2 teaspoons kosher salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Place the chicken breasts between 2 pieces of parchment paper and, with a rolling pin or a meat mallet, pound them until they are evenly 1/2 inch thick. Slice each piece of chicken in half crosswise so you have 2 pieces approximately the same size. Place the chicken in the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or up to (but not more than) 24 hours.
  • When ready to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 300˚. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan and place them in the oven.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, celery salt, 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper and set aside.
  • Pour oil into a medium (9-inch round by 4 1/2-inch high) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, until it is 2 inches deep. Clip on a candy thermometer and heat the oil over high heat until it reaches 350˚. Meanwhile, lift the chicken from the marinade, dredge it in the flour mixture, submerge it again in the marinade, then again in the flour mixture, lightly shaking off the excess. Transfer the chicken to a plate or sheet pan until ready to fry.
  • When the oil is 350˚, carefully lower 3 pieces only into the oil with tongs and adjust the heat to keep the oil at 350˚. Don't crowd the chicken! Cook for 5 minutes, turning once to brown evenly. With a slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the sheet pan in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Sprinkle all the chicken with salt and keep warm for up to 15 minutes, until ready to serve.
  • To assemble, place the bottom of each bun on a plate, spread with some of the buttermilk herb mayo, then top with a lettuce leaf, 4 pickle slices, then a piece of chicken. Spread the underside of the top bun generously with more of the mayo and place on top of the chicken, mayo side down. Serve while the chicken is still warm.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, vinegar, scallions, parsley, chives, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

DOUBLE DIPPED FRIED CHICKEN

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 1/2 pound frying chicken, cut into 8 serving pieces
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons red pepper sauce
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
Fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne
4 cups peanut oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Rinse the chicken pieces and pat dry with paper towels. In a shallow platter, combine the buttermilk, water, and red pepper sauce. Soak the chicken pieces, turn to coat, then cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. If time allows, marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours because the buttermilk promotes tenderness. Place flour in a shallow platter. Season it by mixing in salt, pepper, oregano, garlic, paprika, and cayenne. Roll the marinated chicken pieces in the flour, a few at a time, until well coated. Then, dip chicken in the buttermilk bath again followed by another coat of seasoned flour. Allow the chicken to sit in the flour and dry out while preparing the oil, this will help the coating stay on better. The buttermilk will keep absorbing the seasoned flour, which then fries up to form a crunchy crust. Heat oil in a large electric skillet to 350 degrees F. There should be about 1-inch of fat in the pan. Carefully add the chicken pieces in a single layer, skin side down. Do not crowd the pan or the temperature will plummet; make sure the fat continues to bubble around the chicken. Fry for 5 minutes, then turn the pieces over and fry the other side 5 minutes. Turn again, frying a total of 15 minutes. The turning will produce a golden-crisp skin with even color. Remove chicken to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Do not put hot chicken directly in a bowl or container, the air can not circulate and the steam will cause the crust to fall off. Serve immediately or cool to room temperature.

DOUBLE DREDGE FRIED CHICKEN



Double Dredge Fried Chicken image

This is my family's favorite fried chicken! I have been using this recipe for years now and it's great hot or cold. This is a little on the salty side, but it's perfect for us. If you like less salt, cut back on the amount of salt during the soaking time. Great with baked beans and a potato salad.
