You have used butter and lard together. It was in the Cornish Pasty video, with a memorable quote to the effect of "And for those of you who think that lard is unhealthy, don't worry! We'll also add butter!"

[@foodwishes]

To the people asking... there is no possible way to make this by baking it. Don't even attempt.

[@LeeLooface]

PREACH!

[@Siddhantprasad]

you are great chef john. !! cheers from india :)

[@neharoxx1]

😂

[@death_proof305]

Chef John how many ways do I love thee

[@mathewj23]

My technique is to get baked first and then fry the chicken. It tastes a lot better when you're baked instead of the chicken :)

[@shawnski001]

Dammit.... Midnight again when he posts these. Another night of going to bed drooling.

[@frannypie.]

try 2am lol

[@emma-he4zp]

Morning for me. Just move to uk. That should fix your problem.

[@mikejohnson6369]

No kidding!

[@pkmdz]

Indeed...

[@smiley8106]

4:00 am here in NY

[@whh2000]

Two best things in cooking, fats and spices

[@ninacubana]

exactly

[@jaaasgoed]

I know, right? I was expecting the whole "lard fat, lard bad" thing in the comment section. But most of the people here seem to know how to make good food.

[@ASMRBoosters]

surprising what a pinch of cayenne can do to some chicken

[@10000rambos]

One of these days, I'll make one of your recipes, instead of eating Wendy's while watching you cook.

[@weggles]

If you're gonna make anything... make his peanut butter chicken curry. To die for.

[@Vivsdi89]

lol me too 😂

[@CultureStress]

yeesssssssss

[@10000rambos]

I don't know...this shit looks gangster.

[@hector-m-carrillo]

+weggles relying to save this idea for later

[@worthytroop6305]

My family and I literally just came home from our Nashville vacation last night, this was THE highlight of our trip!

[@Bng210]

You're the BEST! I was disappointed that KFC stopped selling this and now thanks to you I can make my own and it will probably taste a whole lot better. Can't wait to try your recipe. Thanks again!

[@Bekind79]

U make everything so perfect, a true chef with skill. I feel honored to learn ur techniques and browse recipes when I have ppl over for dinner. Ur my go-to

[@AnagramForCraig]

I'm not Crystal clear on which hot sauce you used...

[@combatbenyamin]

For people wondering why the white bread is because it's a cultural/historical thing over Nashville. That's just how they serve it. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_chicken

[@nathanfielure4305]

There are practical use for the bread too. If the chicken is too spicy hot, the eating the bread can scrap the chilli off your mouth, it's a better way to reduce the heat than drinking water.

[@combatbenyamin]

Various Curious Yeah that's what I thought of right away. I always have some milk with me as I eat spicy food lol

[@septembre2112]

the bread is usually soaked in the hot seasonings - eating the bread wont take away from the heat

[@Fudgeey]

I've got the chicken marinating right now, and this WILL be on my plate for dinner. Edit: So I made this for dinner using chicken tenders, and I did have to change a few things. Since my tenders were cut thin, I had to crank the heat to high so the coating browned properly. I also doubled, maybe tripled, the spice mix so the oil would be more flavorful rather than just hot and red. And by the end of the third batch I was tired of the Flour-Dip-Flour process, so I mixed the marinade into the flour and made a batter. The battered chicken was even better than the Flour-Dip-Flour chicken.

[@Himanshudhamija88]

Thanks for the "wet hand dry hand" trick, I am novice so always had to deal with gunky fingers.

[@MetaGrave]

"The food gods hate a coward." ...My cooking failures have all been explained... >.

[@MrArticSwing]

Home kitchen: lightly coat chicken with flour, followed by attentively dipping chicken in marinade to coat evenly and lastly, coating with another layer of flour then setting on wire rack to sit for 15 min Bar kitchen: toss all pieces of chicken in the flour bowl and hastily use both hands to cover then pick up hand fulls of chicken out and into egg wash bowl, mix chicken around till coated then back into the flour bowl, cover with flour then violently throw straight into deep fryer with flour and egg caked hands, with drips of oil splashing onto your arms.

[@markje163]

No Chef John... your videos are never too long :) Thnx for the great recipe!

[@RoyFlush716]

Chef Jon is the best. My favorite part is that he takes a bite of the food at the end. No one else on youtube does that consistently.

[@dustinthompson3899]

Just when I thought Chef John couldn't be any more amazing!

[@DDT701]

Chef, blink twice if the alternative Louisiana hot sauce is Crystal.

[@Slypilotguy]

Oh yea baby! Princes Chicken recipe. The greatest.

[@jeromej221]

You're recipes are amazing, chef John. And you videos are so entertaining! I'm so glad youtube exists right now.

[@Saddmun]

This recipe looks absolutely amazing. Great job Chef John!

[@RoccosPlace1]

By the way, I used this glaze on some steaks I was grilling on the BBQ. They came out amazing.

[@mark0504]

best sense of humor award goes to: Chef John

[@nikki3321100]

Omg! Thanks for sharing. You made this look simple and easy. Now I can make my own.

[@Sharle_21]

I don't know what I enjoy more, the recipes, your voice, or silly jokes. 😉

[@MangoSupaSonic]

I literally cheered for joy when you used Louisiana hot sauce!

[@ChandrajReed]

I got some from Kentucky Fried chicken for my husband and he loved it,so i am so going to make this for him.Ty for making it Chef John!

[@cirothedesertwind7876]

Thank you for showing the wet hand / dry hand technique. I've experienced the batter around my hands a number of times and would have never figured that out!

[@mobonce]

Chef John, Chef John!! You are amazing! I've heard of the southern restaurant which sells this divinely cooked bird. Thanks so very much for the recipe!

[@ImjustKelly73]

I love the sound of that extremely crisp chicken! Looks so good!!!! :D

[@Nitchevo123]

Thank you for the video Chef John! I've tried multiple recipes of yours and they've turned out awesome! I'm going to try your garlic steak with garlic tomorrow.. And this one later in the week. Thank you for the awesome food!! My wife and I love you!

[@donledger7382]

i just love your recipes....and i love you more the way you talk...no matter how long is your video its always fun to watch...you are my super hero chef

[@falcon262]

YAAAAAS, my food wishes have been answered. Making this for ME and BAE tomorrow. Chef John is invited too.

[@CMZZZZ]

people asking why the white bread must have been deprived of the sweetest sensation that is eating highly flavourful food with a soft pillowy almost flavorless cloud of bread... I rarely even eat bread anymore and if I do it's definitely some whole grain hippie stuff that takes a strong jaw to chew and even I know the pleasure of the wonder bread.

[@ankeetapatel3137]

where I am from, kenya, we call this recipe poussin chicken and it's my favorite' thank you

[@KiesandNoob]

John, I hope you know that it's midnight, and I'm here dreaming about homemade spicy chicken while eating white bread dipped in pizza sauce.

[@cindymuco1705]

Ugh I absolutely love this recipe. Love you and your videos thanks for the great video !!! ❤️❤️

[@vik_body_beld7294]

Thats a fine dish and excellent commentary! Beautiful!

[@rkt9886]

Wow that's some tasty looking fried chicken. I would probably brush some sauce on then put some in a cup for dipping. Since I like extra sauce.

[@gildrop]

i would so use waffles instead of bread

[@themightycaolf6549]

Oh god yaaaaas!!!

[@michaeljdauben]

Great idea!

[@theimperialmajesty688]

Make Beingets

[@SS4Xani]

Ikr?

[@resipsaloquitur13]

Nooooooo........

[@JumpingLights91932]

hola chef john, what brand of stainless steel pots and pans do you use I've always wondered?

[@depoman1113]

Chef John, you're a kitchen maestro!

[@PaquiChipSkylar]

FRESHly ground black pepper.

[@BillSchafer48]

I'm not a big chicken-guy, this this looks fantastic. I'm gonna have to try this one.

Yo, I've been looking for an awesome nashville hot chicken recipie, Chef John is the man! I can't wait to make this for the family, only with more cayanne.

[@MrNodebate]

Great tipp with the upper side not coated by oil! You double-fry and you save oil at the same time :) Also great tipp with the wet hand / dry hand technique, thanks and thumps up!

[@YuutoHiroshige]

I put in numbers in my note cards that keep track of how many recipes i learn from Food Wishes. Giving my family something new to eat. For special occasions most of the time. Majority of the times i just cook vietnamese food.

[@thebaldchef14]

Chef John I have eaten this Nashville hot chicken in Nashville itself. I have looked the Internet for a good recipe, and it seems like you got a winner here my friend.

[@chriszz9ch]

Chef John I have learned everything from you stay cookin

[@skeletonsoflove]

I was wondering what the egg in the marinade was for.. Never though of using the marinade as part of the dredging process!

[@ScottWorthington]

That will make your tongue so happy it will beat your brains out. Looks incredible, Chef.

[@Vt3c1]

Chef John: please do a chicken fried steak video!

[@Calbenmike]

Using all of that cayenne must've really excited you, John.

[@nunyabizniz6594]

YASSS Louisiana hot sauce! Go AWF, chef John!

[@greginski]

OMG! wet hand dry hand! you sir have just changed my cooking life!

[@kath471]

I was wondering how to make this. Thanks for the video.

[@shn725]

Awesome! I requested this a few months back

[@selendriamuganogo7077]

thank you for showing me what I'm coming for dinner tonight 😍 that looks so delicious

[@selendriamuganogo7077]

that should say thanks for "showing" me what I'm having for dinner tonight lol

[@fehr2409]

what would be a suitable replacement of the lard?

[@llamawizard]

ohhh...great looking recipe!

[@JH-hs6qj]

Will a deep fryer work just as well? I'm new to deep frying so any guidance will be appreciated.

[@alowishusdavander7804]

You beat me too it, was calling you out for the wet hand dry hand.... a lost art!! LOL

[@bushbasher85]

I just ate this the other day with some sweet potato cakes. Delicious!

[@attackofthepacifists]

Had a Nashville Hot Chicken burrito the other day that had the chicken, pickles, white bread, and Mac and cheese inside. It was delicious insanity.

[@FittedHeat]

love the fork work

[@yanney4667]

hey john, ive been wondering for a while where you got those knives. theyre awesome.

[@BaronEbrani]

I really wanted to hear the sound of it as you took a bite. Been waiting for that the whole video

[@FordyHunt]

looks sensational

[@neurocosm]

The breading process in this video is therapeutic.

[@trschaos]

What determines what you will cook in the next video? Also do you have any pork fried rice or "Colonel-like" "fried chicken"?

[@rharris8890]

question: can you partially bake the chicken before you marinate it and then bread it and fry it? whenever I make fried chicken I always have a problem with the outside getting too dark before the inside gets completely cooked

[@dwaynewladyka577]

This is an interesting recipe. Looks good and spicy.

[@imogenruthburnett3867]

love you chef john
