MAGIC CRISPY CHICKEN
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Position a rack in center of oven; preheat to 450°. Place a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. Place chicken on rack, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Whisk egg yolk, 1 1/2 Tbsp. mayo, 1/2 Tbsp. mustard, and 1/4 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Add several cranks of black pepper and whisk until smooth.
- Add chicken to bowl and turn pieces several times with tongs until evenly coated; set aside.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium. After about a minute, test oil to see if it's hot enough by adding a pinch of panko. If tiny bubbles appear instantly around each bit of panko, you're good to go.
- Add remaining panko and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until crumbs are golden brown, about 5 minutes. Make sure to get around the edges and incorporate darker crumbs that form at the perimeter.
- Remove skillet from heat and let cool several minutes. Place skillet on work surface next to bowl of chicken and wire rack.
- Using tongs, take one piece of chicken at a time and place in skillet. Using one hand, pat surrounding toasted panko over top of thigh, pressing firmly to adhere. Turn chicken and repeat on other side with more crumbs.
- Lightly shake off excess crumbs. Transfer chicken to wire rack.Repeat with remaining chicken pieces, transferring each to rack and spacing evenly apart. Discard any remaining panko.
- Transfer sheet to oven and bake chicken until fully cooked through, juices run clear when pierced with a knife, and breadcrumbs have gone a couple of shades past golden into deep brown territory, 10-15 minutes. Let cool.
- Stir honey, cayenne, and remaining ¼ cup mayonnaise and ¼ cup mustard in a small bowl. Season with black pepper.
- Stir chives into honey mustard sauce and serve with chicken.
