Fearless Fried Chicken Recipes

BEST GLUTEN FREE FRIED CHICKEN RECIPE

Steps:

• Put all ingredients (except chicken) into a bowl and whisk until fluffy.
• Put the raw chicken into a large dish and pour the marinade over the butchered chicken.
• Move chicken around to make sure all of the raw chicken is all covered in the marinade.
• Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 12 hours.
• Drain marinaded chicken in a large strainer.
• Place chicken in the tapioca flour and toss it around to cover the whole piece of chicken.
• Let the chicken rest 2-3 minutes on a baking pan.
• Gently heat oil in a pre-seasoned cast iron skillet. If you have a deep fryer, that is great! I would use that instead. The oil should be 350-375 F degrees before adding the chicken pieces.
• Fry the chicken for 10 minutes on one side. Flip the chicken to cook the other side another 10 minutes. (Do this if you are not fully submerging your chicken in the hot oil. After you cook each side of the chicken, check the internal temperature of 165 F degrees. The total cook time would be around 20 minutes, but it depends on the cut of chicken you are using. If you are deep frying the chicken it will take less time for your chicken to cook.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

FEARLESS "FRIED" CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F (220C).
• Whisk the egg white and buttermilk together, then pour into a pie plate.
• Measure all dry ingredients into a paper or plastic bag and mix.
• Dip one breast (or whatever) into the buttermilk mixture and place in the seasoning bag. Close top and gently shake to evenly coat. Place on a baking sheet with shallow sides. Repeat with remaining chicken. Discard the remainder of the seasoning.
• Using a pastry brush, evenly brush the seasoning-coated chicken with the vegetable oil. This amount of oil is essential for a crispy crust.
• Bake uncovered until crisp and golden - approx 40-45 minutes.

CHARLES' COUNTRY PAN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a bowl or resealable plastic bag, season the chicken with 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the garlic powder. Cover or seal and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours.
• Pour 1/2 to 1 inch of oil into a deep 12-inch cast-iron skillet and heat until a pinch of flour sizzles upon contact (about 360 degrees F). Set a wire rack on top of a rimmed baking sheet and set aside. In a bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs. Place the flour in a separate bowl. Dip the chicken in the egg wash, drain off the excess, then dredge in the flour, shaking off the excess.
• Working in batches, place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and fry for 3 minutes without moving. Continue to fry, turning the chicken every 1 to 2 minutes to ensure even browning and cooking, until the chicken is cooked through, 11 to 15 minutes. Drain on the rack and serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
