Once you coat your chicken in the flour, it is wise to place the chicken on a drying rack and wait 15 to 20 minutes before you fry. This step is to ensure the flour adheres to the chicken so it doesn't fall off in the oil.

If you're going to leave your chicken out to warm up I strongly recommend at least applying the flour (and salt) first. Food poisoning is more often from improper preparation rather than improper cooking. Also, killing the bacteria by cooking doesn't prevent food poisoning.

News flash, fridges are really cold and it takes a long time for cold stuff to get to room temperature. Food poisoning is not an issue unless it's out at room temperature for hours. And it needs to be many hours because I've accidentally left raw meat out at room temperature for hours and I haven't gotten sick. So I assure you food poisoning is not a risk here.
@melodramatic79046 жыл бұрын
Actually, frying in a large pot or a fryer is the best method. The chicken needs to be completely covered in oil. That helps it to fry evenly and avoid soaking up some of that oil, which is bad for your health. It's not that you CAN'T cook in a skillet, but the chicken will likely cook unevenly and be gressy.
@Dina_tankar_mina_ord4 жыл бұрын
There is also a saying that cooking with half the piece above the surface lets air escape. This helps to prevent air pockets between the meat an the batter to form that often can result in all that annoying part when the whole crust comes of in the first bite on bigger pieces.

These are all true! Good video! Another good trick at least when using a buttermilk brine is to double dip the chicken. Dredge once in flour, shake off excess flour, dip back in the buttermilk then dredge again. Also, before dredging in flour, take a few tablespoons of the brine and stir it into the flour to get it a little lumpy. This ensures nice pockets of crispy batter/crust on the outside. Cheers!

I never comment. But I'm a pro cook, and a few weeks ago I made the best fried chicken I ever tasted. (Dairy free even) Wtf, the first thing that was said was, sit at room temp. WRONG. Don't sit at room temp with chicken. It's wrong and will combo a lot of bacteria. Defrost it of course, marinate/brine it of course. And that's not at room temp. So what did I do for the best fried chicken ever??? I soaked it, in a beer brine with plenty of seasoning (the brine holds the seasons the most) after a good 30+ mins. I throw it in flour (paprika and cayenne pepper were involved. Garlic and onion powders tend to burn in the oil and give it a terrible taste) after I flour it, back to the brine, then back to the flour. (Fuckin get that chicken doused in flour for an amazing crispy skin) but. The real secret .you ready?.. like really. Double fry it. Chicken has one of the highest cooking temps. And if you fry it in one go, you will burn the skin before you cook the center. Look, fry it for 3-4 mins. Pull it out and rest. (The skin is still over 300 degrees!! It will continue to cook, slowly) after rested for around 5 mins or whatever (while cooking a side dish) throw it back in for another 5 mins. You won't burn the skin, have flavor, and will never over cook a chicken. I cried when I ate it... I knew I would never have such am amazing meal. Than a meal I cooked myself. Have fun, and enjoy :)

After you dredge you should let chicken sit for 4-6 minutes to let the flour adhere. This reduces the flour from coming off the chicken. Alton Brown suggests you season the bare meat with a spice shake and just use salt & pepper in the flour. Most spices will simply burn on the flour but the spice shake is protected a bit by the flour.

My grandmas secret was to put 4 or 5 pieces of sidemeat into the oil in her cast iron cooker when she turned the pieces for the final cooking. Gave her chicken a flavor no one else ever had. I don't think she used as much oil as most people it seems. 1st half of cooking was covered, second half uncovered. I should've paid more attention. Been making chicken wrong this whole time.

Two major steps is brining the chicken, as the interior of the meat needs to intake flavor. And when breading.. start with a wet seasoning with a batter, then dip the wet battered chicken into a dry flour or breading mixture. then place in oil. what happens is the outer dry breading gets crispy while the inner wet batter expands and creates a fluffy crust. and example would be Popeyes fried chicken. If you avoid the wet batter stage and only opt for dry flour, then youd get a thin crisp coating. and depending on your oil and the overall heat. the chicken extracting its own juices may wet its own crispy coating when taken out the pan. resulting in a more KFC type crust.
@jeremyharris84756 жыл бұрын
First: What is the first place that comes to your mind when you think fried chicken? KFC, right? And what is the most popular style at KFC? Original recipe, right? Not crispy. You shouldn't assume fried chicken needs to be crispy. In truth, the buttermilk style gives a good crust but the chicken itself takes a back seat to it. The crust or "coating" should enhance the chicken not replace it. If all you want is crust just fry batter. And what's the point of seasoning the flour? You have to use more seasoning because the flour "dilutes" it. Season the MEAT. Then dust it with flour. Then fry it only until it's brown. Put it on baking pan with a rack and stick it in the oven. Don't turn the oven on until all the chicken has been browned. Turn the oven on to 350 and by the time it's preheated the chicken is usually done. Your chicken will have just enough seasoning and crust, very little oil, and most importantly, moist inside. I'm a 59 year old son of the south who has cooked fried chicken for years both personally and professionally. The only better way that I know to do it requires either a pressure cooker or at minimum a deep fryer.

I have no clue why people parboil chicken. Why would you ever boil chicken unless you're making soup? Do people think boiling water is hotter than grease or an oven? Does the boiling water clean, tenderize, or add flavor? What are these people thinking?

My mom likes to boil flavors into it especially curryand. for her it helps to make sure chicken is fully cooked. she does it for French fries too.

I don't parboil chicken prior to frying but would guess this makes the bird more tender and juicy and cuts down on cooking time.

I'm a fulltime fried chicken cook. My pces are cut and I place this in a brine solution for 24hours in a chiller. Then prepare a flour, nutmeg, garlic powder, MSG, smoked powered paprika, coriander powder, dust the chicken directly from the brine solution cold after the 24 hour period. Place the dusted ( just one coating) pces on a layered pressure fryer basket. 42 pces at a time. Then into a Henny Penny pressure fryer and cook that for 13 minutes. When the fryer expels steam it's almost there. What comes out is out the door with slaw and fries in less than a minute. Yeah baby! That's my recipe and my cash cow!!!

No. I have not been making fried chicken incorrectly. Coming from Kentucky, I make very good fried chicken. My mom made the best fried chicken ever!!! Her chicken was much better than Colonel Harlan Sanders. She used to serve with fresh green beans from her garden, mashed potatoes, fried green tomatoes, and her homemade biscuits with honey.

Well I was going to say use a brine but u already got it! Just started doing that about a year ago and what a difference. My brothers mother in law, Gabina Sierra, was from from Matamoros, Mexico and the best cook I have ever me.! One time in about 1973 I was at her house and she had a big stock pot on the stove and I asked her what was she making. She said Barbacoa, go look. Lifted the lid and a huge pig head was staring back at me!! I was hooked. Now to the tip: she would add soda water to her egg wash. She always fried in lard but the food was always grease free. I have fried food using egg wash before the soda water then added it and finished cooking. HUGE difference.

You can use plain yogurt buttermilk or even honey to help break down chicken. Salt isn’t the only thing. I don’t have buttermilk here in Thailand but raw honey and yoghurt work great and add way more incredible flavor and texture than a brine. Not only that but most chicken go through a brine if you get in a bulk buy.

If you have normal milk and lemon juice, you can make buttermilk. It's like 4 lemon tablespoons per cup of milk. Let sit for 15 minutes.

I just got this from Google Wikipedia on Kosher food: The classical rabbis prohibited any item of food that had been consecrated to an idol or had been used in the service of an idol. Since the Talmud views all non-Jews as potential idolaters, and viewed intermarriage with apprehension, it included within this prohibition any food which has been cooked or prepared completely by non-Jews.

Kosher salt has nothing to do with actually being kosher or not - it's not a kosher food, it's the particular size and style of the salt crystals. Just like how rock salt isn't actually rocks.

kosher salt actually tastes much better and isn't highly refined. table salt is literally trash, shit salt. avoid it at all costs. use Maldon Salt or other high quality salt for better flavor. quality matters in salt.

Do not let chicken get to room temperature. It will absorb the grease. Chicken should be thrown cold (high 30's) to create a thermal barrier that seals the chicken and prevents the absorption of the cooking oil. Same thing with french fries.

Brine? This is so extra...cleans and season the chicken. Season the flour. Dip chicken in flour. Fry in hot canola or vegetable oil. No thermometer? Nobody really uses one...sprinkle some flour in the oil and If the flour bubbles then the oil is hot enough. You know the chicken is done when it floats. It takes like 20 minutes if your chicken is already thawed. You don't even need all this extra mess. This is how my family has always fried... any meat
@noma31634 жыл бұрын
well I mean a good tip for fried chicken is to bread it and stick it back in the fridge/freezer for a short time to make the breading that much more crispy and if the oil temp is dropping so low that it is effecting your chicken then you either don't have it hot enough or you can just turn up the temp right before you drop them in and it wont have a single issue, this is coming from a person who makes amazing fried chicken atleast once a month for the past 4 years.
