FLASH-FRIED FINGER-LICKIN' CHICKEN
Flash frying is a high-heat deep frying technique used to rapidly fry small shrimp to avoid overcooking them before the crust browns. Flash flying requires an oil temperature of at least 400°F-which means you have to use an oil with a high smoke point like grapeseed oil. By poaching the chicken first and then flash frying it, I was able to eliminate 20 grams of fat and at least 250 calories from traditional fried chicken. Because the chicken is already cooked, it only has to spend enough time in the hot oil to brown the crust, which means it absorbs less oil.

Steps:
- Heat the chicken broth in a medium sauce pot over high heat, seasoning it generously with salt. Add the chicken thighs to the pan and bring the broth to a simmer. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer gently until the chicken is tender, about 40 minutes. Remove the thighs from the liquid, pat them dry, and set them aside on a platter, covered with foil to keep them warm.
- While the chicken is cooking, pour the grapeseed oil into a large pot with high sides, and bring it to 400˚F F high heat. Set a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet or over several layers of paper towels (for draining the chicken). In a shallow dish, combine the flour with the paprika, celery salt, black pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, and the cayenne. Use a whisk to thoroughly combine the ingredients.
- Combine the warm chicken thighs with the buttermilk in a large bowl, coating them completely. Dredge the thighs in the seasoned flour. Then dip the thighs in the buttermilk and dredge them in the seasoned flour once more, to double coat the chicken. Shake off any excess flour.
- Fry the chicken, 2 pieces at a time, in the hot oil until deep golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain on the wire rack, and serve immediately.
CANDI'S FINGER LICKIN' SMOKIN' CHICKEN!
This dish is an absolute favorite! My family will ask me to make it constantly, even the hubby who hates chicken! The chicken pieces I use for this are legs and thighs still attached (these came from my own chickens) but yours don't have to be attached!

Steps:
- 1. Dice garlic and onion for brine. I use equal amounts of soy sauce and beef bullion (I get the 1.25qt bottle soy sauce and use the whole thing) about 5-10 dashes of tabasco (more if you like it spicier! place chicken in deep enough pan to cover in brine. cover with all brine ingredients. cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
- 2. remove chicken from brine and rinse. The pieces will be darker because of the brine.
- 3. These directions are for charcoal/wood smoke, I do not use propane. spread coals out evenly after lit, place wood chips on them, pour brine into a heat safe bowl to sit on the grill with the chicken! Place all chicken on grill and close.
- 4. Use the brine in the smoker to mop/brush chicken with every 15-20 minutes. Turn chicken after 30 minutes and continue to smoke, mopping/brushing every 15-20 minutes. take chicken of grill after about an hour, let rest for about 10 minutes (if you can wait that long!) **REMEMBER- when done, smoked chicken will be pink because of the smoking process not because it is raw!**
FINGER LICKIN' GOOD CHICKEN MARINADE
I got the recipe for this incredibly tasty marinade from a neighbor at a cookout 17 years ago. I haven't found a better marinade for my chicken since then! I use it in baking chicken, but I mostly use it to grill chicken sandwiches, topped with Muenster cheese on a grilled Kaiser roll. Yummy!
