The private to Crispy Fried Chicken Batter

The chicken is one of the tastes that are most enhanced using a fry pan, weather pan frying or deep-frying, the chicken- if done correctly, chicken will always have the best results when cooked in oil.

Frying has the ability, if done correctly to turn the coating into a tasty addition yet, at the same time, enable the chicken to cook in its own juices and come to be tender and delicious.

Pan Fried Chicken

What you need to make inescapable when frying is that the oil is hot enough- if the chicken is put into boiling oil the heat of the oil turns the juices of the chicken into a remarkable steam pushing out from the chicken, that steam is what in actual fact cooks the chicken (that is why fried chicken is so tasty) at the same time the oil is prevented from penetrating the chicken and only fries the batter into a crisp coat that adds spice and flavor.

The rules are practically the same for all pieces in the chicken:
The center parts (that have the longer, thicker muscles and slightly whiter meat) have less natural juices and dry out faster.

Chicken thighs, drumsticks have a slightly softer, browner meat and a succulent taste (wings are an irregularity to both groups, they have darker meat but are so thin they must be fried swiftly to avoid drying out)

When frying a chicken it should of course be sliced into the separate parts (whole stuffed chickens are best in the oven, food commonly doesn't fry uniformly when separate sizes of pieces are cooked at once). The larger breast pieces are best fried when separated from the bones and skin, whereas the legs (drumsticks) and thighs are best when left with their bones (skin is elective as it is tasty to some, unappealing to others and has a high fat content that should be taken into account).

All chicken pieces are best when covered up before pan-fried or deep fried. Unlike beef that has the capability to close inside all juices when on a heat source (grill, pan, or cast Iron skillet) the chicken meat doesn't have the same ability, and it loses moisture and dries up. If there is a coating (batter or other) the oil remains on the outside while the chicken cooks in the steam formed from its own juices- so the fried chicken doesn't lose neither the moisture nor the flavor.

Two quick recipes for either type of chicken meat, and a private revealed in each one:

The chicken thighs, drumsticks and wings should be covered in a softer batter and deep fried:
The private for the batter is to dip the chicken parts into Yogurt! a straightforward sour yogurt (it adds moisture, while softening the meat and enriches the taste) leave it in the Yogurt for 30 minutes, then roll it in a mixture of seasoned bread crumbs and gradually put into deep hot oil until golden, make sure you take out immediately when ready and soak off all excess fat (another tip is not to fry too many pieces at the same time, they need room to properly fry).

The chicken breast and back-the "Schnitzel Oriental":
The chicken breast should be cleaned from bones and skins and cut into slices 0.2 inch high (0.5 centimeter) than put dipped into scrambled egg (a small private is to add milk and half a teaspoon of mustard into the egg batter for extra taste!) and dip into a seasoned mix of breadcrumbs. The private to the breadcrumbs is to use Oriental seasoning-Turmeric, Cumin, Dried Garlic, Curry powder, Dharma Masala, and for the brave- Sambar Powder. Fry in a flat pan in boiling oil (the level of the oil should reach half the height of the chicken fillets) when Gold on the bottom flip over and when golden on both take out and soak excess oil onto a paper towel. These are just as good if freezing and reheated at a later date (even in a microwave) so you can make a large batch that will last a long time. Note that these spices make the "Schnitzel" a darker Golden shade so make sure they are ready before removing them from the oil.

Crispy Fried Chicken

This method of crispy fried chicken is very uncomplicated and easy to cook. All you need are some very basic ingredients (listed below) and at least one hour of time. This chicken meal is as crispy as any other fried chicken served at fast food restaurants. Continue reading below to find out what it requires and how it should be made. 

Ingredients Required :

Pan Fried Chicken

1 chicken (make four large pieces) 1 tbsp red chili powder 3 tbsp white vinegar 2 cup water 4 cloves chopped garlic Salt to taste 2 cup corn flakes 1 cup crispy potato chips 1 egg 2 cup sifted plain flour

Instructions :

In a mixing bowl add red chili powder, vinegar, salt, garlic and exiguous estimate of water. Mix all these well to make a uniform watery mixture. Now dip your chicken pieces in the combination and put in refrigerator for 30 minutes. While chicken is kept in the refrigerator, you can now prepare for the crispy coating of your chicken for which you are required to crush some cornflakes and potato chips using your hands only. Do not crush them to very small pieces. As long as you can see the shape of private pieces, they are fine in size and are ready to be mixed together. Now take out the chicken pieces from the combination that you have kept in the refrigerator and one by one coat them in flour. Before dipping the chicken pieces in egg, dust the excess flour. After that dip them in egg and ultimately coat the pieces fully with crushed cornflakes and potato chips combination that you had made earlier. It is always a nice idea to preheat the frying pan or what ever frying equipment you are using. This will save time and by the time your chicken is ready to be fried, the oil is already warm. The basic and most efficient way of manufacture the fried chicken pieces crispy is to only deep fry them on medium flame i.e. Within moderate climatic characteristic ranges. It is also advised to cover the frying pan while frying so that chicken cooks well from inside as well as remain crispy and a bit crunchy from the outside. Take out the chicken pieces when they turn golden brown in color. It will take about ten minutes for the chicken to be cooked in preheated oil.

How To Make Fried Chicken Soft And Tender But Crispy On The exterior

You may have eaten chicken breasts before that were pan-fried and the chicken tasted rubbery, tough and dry. Properly batter fried chicken breasts supposed to be very soft and tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. So how do you accomplish this? It's assuredly no big secret. Cooking fried chicken breasts is quite simple if you know the right steps and techniques.

Using a meat tenderizing tool, pound out each breast so that it has an even thickness. If you prefer it to be very thin, slice it in half from the side so you have two thin pieces. Pounding the chicken breasts ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and thoroughly. For best results, soak the chicken in an herb and buttermilk blend overnight to season and soften your chicken breasts. The process adds flavor and makes them tender and moist after cooking.

Pan Fried Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade mixture, allow excess to drain off, and coat chicken in flour. Alternately you can dredge the chicken in egg before coating in flour. Place the coated chicken pieces on a platter and set in the fridge to rest for about 15 minutes before pan frying. To add some extra crispy texture to the outside, consolidate some bread crumbs, bran, crushed chip or crackers, or crushed unsweetened cereal into the flour mixture.

Preheat oil in a heavy lowest skillet to the point of almost smoking. Use oil with a high smoking point such as peanut oil. Add chicken pieces moderately to the oil. Allow one piece of chicken to start cooking before adding another. When the first piece has reached appoint where the batter is browning on the outside, normally 5-8 minutes, turn the chicken and discontinue cooking. Chicken breasts when properly cooked should be white in color, and the juices should run clear in color. Do not cover the chicken with a lid; however a splatter screen is suggested. Turn chicken only once, unless necessary.

Place the pan-fried chicken on a wire rack sitting on a baking sheet and place in a preheated 200 F oven. The oven will keep the chicken warm while the remaining pieces discontinue frying. Placing on a wire rack also allows the chicken to drain off any excess oil. Alternately, remove chicken from hot oil to a platter covered with paper towels to catch oil and allow chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.

The chicken thighs, drumsticks and wings should be covered in a softer batter and deep fried:
The secret for the batter is to dip the chicken parts into Yogurt! a simple sour yogurt (it adds moisture, while softening the meat and enriches the taste) leave it in the Yogurt for 30 minutes, then roll it in a mixture of seasoned bread crumbs and gently put into deep hot oil until golden, make sure you take out immediately when ready and soak off all excess fat (another tip is not to fry too many pieces at the same time, they need room to properly fry).

The chicken breast and back-the "Schnitzel Oriental":
The chicken breast should be cleaned from bones and skins and cut into slices 0.2 inch high (0.5 centimeter) than put dipped into scrambled egg (a small secret is to add milk and half a teaspoon of mustard into the egg batter for extra taste!) and dip into a seasoned mix of breadcrumbs. The secret to the breadcrumbs is to use Oriental seasoning-Turmeric, Cumin, Dried Garlic, Curry powder, Dharma Masala, and for the brave- Sambar Powder. Fry in a flat pan in boiling oil (the level of the oil should reach half the height of the chicken fillets) when Gold on the bottom flip over and when golden on both take out and soak excess oil onto a paper towel. These are just as good if frozen and reheated at a later date (even in a microwave) so you can make a large batch that will last a long time. Note that these spices make the "Schnitzel" a darker Golden shade so make sure they are ready before removing them from the oil.

Enjoy!

How To Make Fried Chicken Soft And Tender But Crispy On The Outside

You may have eaten chicken breasts before that were pan-fried and the chicken tasted rubbery, tough and dry. Properly batter fried chicken breasts supposed to be very soft and tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. So how do you accomplish this? It's really no big secret. Cooking fried chicken breasts is quite simple if you know the right steps and techniques.

Using a meat tenderizing tool, pound out each breast so that it has an even thickness. If you prefer it to be very thin, slice it in half from the side so you have two thin pieces. Pounding the chicken breasts ensures that the chicken cooks evenly and thoroughly. For best results, soak the chicken in an herb and buttermilk mixture overnight to season and soften your chicken breasts. The process adds flavor and makes them tender and moist after cooking.

Pan Fried Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade mixture, allow excess to drain off, and coat chicken in flour. Alternately you can dredge the chicken in egg before coating in flour. Place the coated chicken pieces on a platter and set in the fridge to rest for about 15 minutes before pan frying. to add some extra crispy texture to the outside, incorporate some bread crumbs, bran, crushed chip or crackers, or crushed unsweetened cereal into the flour mixture.

Preheat oil in a heavy bottom skillet to the point of almost smoking. Use oil with a high smoking point such as peanut oil. Add chicken pieces slowly to the oil. Allow one piece of chicken to start cooking before adding another. When the first piece has reached appoint where the batter is browning on the outside, usually 5-8 minutes, turn the chicken and finish cooking. Chicken breasts when properly cooked should be white in color, and the juices should run clear in color. Do not cover the chicken with a lid; however a splatter screen is suggested. Turn chicken only once, unless necessary.

Place the pan-fried chicken on a wire rack sitting on a baking sheet and place in a preheated 200 F oven. The oven will keep the chicken warm while the remaining pieces finish frying. Placing on a wire rack also allows the chicken to drain off any excess oil. Alternately, remove chicken from hot oil to a platter covered with paper towels to catch oil and allow chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.

How to Cook Crispy Duck

The words "crispy duck" are often enough to make people start drooling but what is the secret of this crispy recipe and how do you ensure a crispy exterior? Actually, the secret is to score the duck across the front and salt it quite heavily before cooking. This dries the skin up and promotes crispiness.

Use a sharp knife to make slits in the skin and poke it with a fork. Add plenty of salt and then follow the recipe. Bake the bird breast down for three quarters of the total cooking time. Stick a fork under the legs and wings to help the fat drain out.

Pan Fried Chicken

Use the broiler in the oven during the final quarter of the cooking time to finish cooking the bird. This also helps to crisp up the skin and keep the bird moist. Since you are only slitting the bird's fatty layer, you can tuck some herbs, spices, or seasonings in there. As the fat melts, the seasonings will infuse the meat with flavor. You can use these cooking tips for nearly any duck breast recipe.

Recipe for Pan Fried Duck Breast with an Onion Marmalade

Duck breast is so easy to prepare and the following recipe is best served medium rare. Onion marmalade is a great sauce to serve with this recipe but you can make any sauce you want. A fresh bird gives much nicer results so do not use frozen. You can ask your butcher to order fresh duck for you if he does not have any in stock.

What you will need:

4 duck breast halves, with skin Salt Black pepper

How to make it:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Score the fat on each breast to make a crisscross pattern. Keep the cuts shallow and do not cut into the meat. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the meat. Use plenty of salt to help make the skin crispy.

Heat an ovenproof skillet over a moderately high heat and put the breasts skin side down. Cook them for about five minutes or until the outside is golden brown. You might have to turn down the temperature since you want the outside to be crispy but you do not want to overcook the meat.

Drain off the fat and keep it for a future roast potatoes recipe. Put the skillet with the duck breasts in the oven and cook for twelve minutes for medium rare. You should watch the duck carefully because the thickness of the breasts can affect the cooking time. A thermometer inserted into the center of the breast should read 125 to 130 degrees F for medium rare.

Do not turn the breasts over during the cooking time; keep them skin side down. Transfer them to a warm plate skin side up and let them rest for ten minutes while you make a sauce or finish off your side dishes. Slice the meat half an inch thick on the diagonal and serve.

How to Cook Crispy Duck

This crispy duck recipe makes a change from fried chicken and searing it in the pan before baking it results in a crispy outside and a tender, juicy interior. The same principle can be applied to chicken if you would prefer to make an oven fried chicken recipe.

Southern Crispy Fried Catfish

You don't have to be from The Delta or The South to enjoy mouthwatering southern fried crispy catfish. This fish is so succulent and moist that it just melts in your mouth. I am sure that fried catfish has been around as long as the south has.

Come into the kitchen with me and enjoy one of my family favorites.

Items needed
1 cup of yellow or white cornmeal
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons of salt
1/2 teaspoon of ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
2 teaspoons of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 4 to 6 oz catfish fillets
large deep cast iron skillet, dutch oven or heavy pot
vegetable oil or peanut oil for frying

Rinse fish and pat dry to remove moisture. Sprinkle fish with the 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix meal, flour, salt, peppers, garlic powder and onion powder in a large shallow dish. Dredge fish in cornmeal mixture, coating evenly. Pour oil to depth of about two inches in skillet. Heat to 350 degrees or until oil is hot. Cook in batches of three for 5 or 6 minutes or until fillets are crispy and golden brown. When done remove with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

If you wish to keep fish warm after draining, place on a wire rack in an aluminum foil lined shallow pan or cookie sheet in a 250 degree oven. Do not cover fish, covering removes the crispness.

This recipe yields 4 southern servings and goes well with boiled corn, hush puppies and slaw. We also like baked beans, hush puppies and slaw. An old southern favorite is plain pasta with red sauce, corn muffins and slaw. To add a little zest use a splash of lemon, tartar sauce or the southern favorite hot sauce.

Where-ever you are on the globe this dish will not remain on the table for long.

How to Cook a Really Crispy Duck or Chicken

If you're like me you love the skin on the outside of duck, if it's crispy. The texture of the meal can totally be changed with a crispy skin.

The secret is to make sure the duck is scored across the front and salted heavily.

This helps dry up the skin and makes for a super crispy skin. You will not be the only one that enjoys this Crispy Duck Recipe, but everyone else at your dinner table.

Take the duck that you're going to use for your main dish make slits in the breast with a knife and poke with a fork. Salt the breast heavily use your discretion and taste. You can use this method for any recipe you can think of.

Just use the cooking instructions from the recipe you are using. Place the bird breast down on the baking pan and cook like that for about ¾ of the total time that the recipe says to cook it for, making sure to drain the fat from the bird, usually by sticking it with a fork under the wings and legs.

During the last 1/4 of the cooking use the broil on the oven to finish cooking up the breast. This should make the skin crispy while the duck is still moist. Since this way of cooking can be used for almost any recipe for crispy duck recipe you have, it gives you more choices for the texture you want to use for your meal.

Cooking is all about mixing things up and building your own ways of cooking and recipes.

Also since you are slitting only the fatty layer of the bird you can use that to tuck away some hidden seasoning. Try tucking your favorite herbs into the slits under the skin, as the fat melts away it'll trickle down and out of the bird but first it'll seep into the meat.

This can add a new dimension to the meat, making it even more succulent. Taking these tips you should be able to use your imagination to come up with many more combos. With crispy duck recipes you can add extra flavors and also add a whole new texture to the dish.

Use these two together to try out new things, using the crispy skin to add texture to an otherwise smooth meal. So the next meals with duck you cook try out some of these combos, just using your taste and imagination. There are thousands of recipes in books and the internet to mix and match with.
