Categories     main-dish

Time 2h40m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 chicken drumsticks, skin on
2 chicken thighs, skin on, bone in
3 to 4 cups milk
2 1/4 cups solid vegetable shortening, for frying
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • In a medium pan, place chicken and cover with milk. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to overnight. This helps tenderize the meat, but is optional
  • In a large saucepan over a medium-high heat, using tongs, transfer chicken into pot, then pour in the milk. Bring milk to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low allowing to simmer until the chicken is cooked through entirely, about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken from the milk, and place on a rack to cool. Allow them to sit until warm about 15 minutes, and then pat dry using a kitchen towel.
  • Heat vegetable shortening in a Dutch oven over high heat just until it's nearly at the smoking point around 325 degrees F.
  • In a large zip-lock bag, add salt, flour, cayenne pepper, shake to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, beat 1 egg.
  • Place each piece of chicken, 1 at a time, in the bag and shake to coat the chicken. Then dip chicken into the egg to coat. Place the chicken back into the flour to coat for a second time. Repeat this method on remaining 3 pieces of chicken.
  • Gently drop each piece of chicken into hot oil, allowing the skin to crisp and turn golden brown in color, about 1 minute per side. Remove from the oil and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve immediately.

DEEP SOUTH FRIED CHICKEN

This was my grandmother's and mother's recipe. It is 125 plus years old. If you are going to fry anything, let it be a frying size chicken. Cut your calories some other way! Start a new tradition, as I have, of fried chicken on Christmas Day!

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup shortening
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Heat the shortening in a large, cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

GRANDMA'S SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN



Grandma's Southern Fried Chicken image

Just plain ol' good!!! This is actually my very own concoction, because my Grandma never usually measured when she cooked. :) But it definately tastes like my Grandma's and my Great Aunt's!

Provided by Wildflour

Categories     Chicken

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (2 1/2-3 lb) broiler-fryer chickens, cut up
buttermilk, enough to cover the bird
1 tablespoon hot sauce
butter flavor shortening (for frying)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/8 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 teaspoons seasoning salt
1/8 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 1/4 teaspoons black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne red pepper powder
1/4 teaspoon thyme, crush between your fingers when adding
1/4 teaspoon basil

Steps:

  • Wash chicken pieces and place in a deep bowl. Cover with buttermilk and hot sauce, and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
  • Melt shortening in a cast iron skillet to a depth of about 1 inch.
  • Heat to about 370º. (No thermometer needed, really. It'll get hot enough while chicken rests AFTER coating if you have your flame on about medium.) If it starts to smoke, turn it down immediately a bit.
  • In a doubled brown paper lunch sack, mix together all of the dry ingredients.
  • Remove chicken from bowl.
  • Using additional seasoned salt and pepper, lightly coat to season chicken.
  • Place chicken in bag, one piece at a time. Shake well until thoroughly coated.
  • Dip each piece in the buttermilk and coat with flour once again.
  • Shake off excess; place on waxed paper for 15 minutes or until dry.
  • Place chicken, skin side down, in hot shortening.
  • Do not crowd skillet.
  • Brown until golden on bottom (good)(skin) side. When chicken pieces are golden on one side, turn pieces over, cover with tight fitting lid, and reduce heat to a simmer, turning chicken pieces ocaisionally, for 35 to 40 minutes or until juices run clear and chicken is tender. *When lid is placed on, and heat is reduced to a good simmer, the good side of pieces are the top sides. After about 10 minutes, turn back to skin-side down. After another 10 minutes or so, turn back to skin-side up for the last 10-15 minutes.).
  • Uncover and cook 5 minutes longer for "crispy on the outside" crust. Remove at once, skipping this step, if a softer outside is preferred. My grandma and great aunts always drained their fried chicken on brown paper grocery bags. This seems to work best for me, too. Paper towels work "ok", too. *If doubling or making alot of chicken, or just wanting to keep it warm til the rest of your side dishes are done and ready to serve, place chicken on brown paper bag-lined cookie sheet in very low oven. GREAT cold, too!
  • 4-6 servings.
  • To make chicken fingers:.
  • Use 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into strips about a 1/2-3/4 " thick. I skipped the buttermilk and hot sauce part, and dipped them into the flour mixture first, then into 1 egg beaten with about a half of a cup of half and half cream and a little hot sauce. Then back into the flour mixture. Worked out PERFECTLY. I lightly browned them in hot oil on one side, turned them, then put a lid on them. I then only cooked them for 8 minutes. I removed the lid, turned them and cooked them another minute. Drained them on paper towel.YUM!
  • *One extra tip: Don't ever turn chicken by piercing with a fork, all the juices will run out and the meat will be dry. Always use tongs and have a sharp spatula handy to get underneath just in case a little bit wants to stick. You don't want to lose that good breading! :).
