Ideas for fried chicken?

Question

I'd like to try frying chicken on the stovetop. Does anyone have any recipes/instructions?

Answer 1

Brining the chicken overnight always produces the best fried chicken no matter what is used in the crust.

Use the recipe below. I give it my no suck guarantee......

Answer 2

Cut your chicken into pieces and soak overnight in 1 quart of Buttermilk seasoned with 1 T Hot Sauce and salt and pepper. Drain the chicken and dredge in a mixture of 2 cups flour, 1 T seasoned salt, 1 tsp fresh ground pepper, and 1 tsp garlic powder. Mix 2 eggs into 1 cup of water. Dip chicken in egg mixture and then back into flour. Heat Canola or other vegetable oil in skillet until a drop of water sizzles. You will need about 1 quart of oil depending on how much chicken you have. Place chicken in skillet, being careful not to over fill or the oil will cool. About 4 pieces is enough. Cook on medium heat until browned on both sides and juices run clear. Place on paper towels to drain.

Answer 3

the easiest way to make crispy chicken is to double dip the chicken in the flour mixture before you fry it. I work in a restaurant and get tons of complements on my chicken, here what I do.

Mix 3 cups flour with 3 Tablespoon black pepper, 1/3 cup Lowery's seasoning salt.set aside.
mix 3 cups hot milk with 4 chicken bouillon cubes until dissolved.
Dip chicken pieces in milk then flour and repeat. then fry in very hot oil over med heat for about 7 minutes carefully turn and fry another 7 minutes

Answer 4

Its not a whole lot to cooking fried chicken. Everyone has all these gourmet recipes. You can use them if you want but i would suggest seasoning it with a little salt, pepper, onion, and garlic or for an easy way out... a basic seasoning salt. Then coat it in a mixture of flour and bisquick <----thats a secret of mine. It makes the crust crispy and flaky.

Answer 5

New and different

INGREDIENTS
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 egg
seasoning salt to taste
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
salt and pepper to taste
oil for frying
DIRECTIONS
In a shallow dish or bowl combine the soup, egg and seasoning salt (be careful, as soup is already salted); mix together. Dip chicken in mixture and turn to coat completely. Set aside.
In a resealable plastic bag mix together the flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper. One at a time, place chicken pieces in bag, seal and shake to coat. Add more flour and/or cornstarch as necessary, but add them in equal parts (there should be an equal amount of each in the mixture).
Place coated chicken on a platter and allow to sit until it becomes doughy (this is critical, to ensure crispiness when fried). Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat; be sure to use enough oil to cover chicken pieces. Once chicken is doughy, test oil by dropping a piece of the 'dough' into it; the oil is ready when it starts to fry immediately.
Fry chicken pieces in oil for about 7 to 10 minutes each, or until cooked through and juices run clear. Drain on paper towels and serve.
