Electric Skillet Fried Chicken Recipe 375

FRIED CHICKEN STRIPS

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. In another shallow bowl, beat egg and milk. Dip chicken into egg mixture, then cracker mixture. , In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry chicken, a few strips at a time, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

DEEP SOUTH FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat the shortening in a large, cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
• In a brown paper lunch bag, combine the flour, salt, and pepper. Shake two chicken pieces in the bag to coat, and place them in the skillet. Repeat until all of the chicken is coated and in the skillet.
• Fry the chicken over medium-high heat until all of the pieces have been browned on both sides. Turn the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 25 minutes. Remove the lid, and increase heat to medium-high. Continue frying until chicken pieces are a deep golden brown, and the juices run clear.

ELECTRIC SKILLET CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Spray electric skillet with Pam and heat to medium.
• 2. Remove chicken thighs from package and rinse them thoroughly in cold water. Pat dry with paper towel. (This is done so that it reduces popping caused by the hot grease once the chicken starts to cook and releases the oil from the chicken fat. Remember, oil and water do not mix!! If you have an oil fire ever, do not pour water on it. Either put flour on it or cover with a lid to starve it from oxygen, and remove from heat source).
• 3. Place chicken thighs in skillet with the smooth skin pretty-side up. (Cook bottoms first, which also cooks the majority of the chicken as a whole).
• 4. Sprinkle half of your salt and pepper all over tops of chicken thighs, using more or less according to your taste. Cover the skillet with your lid (important to cover!). (I use this time to start preparing the rest of the meal).
• 5. Cook chicken for about 30 minutes (on the bottom side) then turn over, sprinkle salt and pepper on the other side and cook the remaining 30 minutes. If your chicken starts to look like it's getting too dark and it is done, take it out early. It typically takes me 1 hour total to cook this thoroughly (on medium heat in my electric skillet) but every skillet is different as far as heat goes. Do not serve if it is still pink or shows any sign of blood in the meat or near the inner bone. If it appears it is cooking too fast, turn your heat down. It is good to have a crispy skin, but not burned.
• 6. Once chicken is done, take it out of the skillet and set it on a plate with a few paper towels underneath to drain the natural grease from the chicken.

• Mix milk and beaten eggs in large bowl.
• Dip chicken into milk and egg mixture.

DIXIE FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pour canned Chicken Stock into wide shallow pan.
• Marinate chicken in the chicken stock overnight in the refrigerator, or for two to three hours in fridge.
• If using unsalted chicken stock, salt and pepper chicken on both sides, go easy on the salt, though.
• Pour enough corn oil into electric skillet to come only 1/4 up the sides of skillet.
• Set heat at 375-400.
• Have electric skillet pre-heated before you begin to coat chicken.
• Pour out 1 packet of Dixie Fry onto flat dish or pan.
• Have another large flat pan ready to hold the just-coated chicken in.
• Dredge the wet/marinated chicken in Dixie Fry, making sure the chicken is fully covered with coating, place in empty pan.
• Shake off excess.
• Once all chicken is coated, place all pieces of chicken in 400-420 electric skillet.
• Make sure to keep the lid on while chicken fries, as this will seal in the flavors and juices.
• Cook approximately 15-20 minutes on each side.
• I like to use tongs to turn chicken.
• Chicken should be golden brown when done.
• Drain/cool on paper towels for at least 5 minutes.
• Enjoy.
