Deep-Fried Chickens Recipe

Provided by Gabe Soria

Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 4 1/2- to 5-pound whole chickens (halved lengthwise and backbones removed if using pasta pot with insert)
4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 quarts to 4 gallons (about) peanut oil for frying (amount depends on fryer)

Steps:

  • Place 2 whole chickens in insert of turkey deep fryer (or 2 chicken halves in basket insert of large deep pasta pot); place insert in deep fryer (or pot). Measure number of cups of cold water needed to cover chickens by 1 inch; number of cups of water is amount of oil needed for deep-frying. Remove chickens from water and pat very dry. Thoroughly dry deep fryer (or pot) and insert; reserve.
  • Mix salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper in small bowl. Sprinkle chickens all over with seasoning mix. Let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
  • Place required cups of peanut oil in deep fryer. (If using pasta pot, place oil in pot and attach deep-fry thermometer to side.) Heat oil over medium heat to 350°F. Pat chicken dry, if moist. Place 2 whole chickens in insert of deep fryer (or 2 chicken halves in basket insert of pot; reposition thermometer to side of basket insert).
  • Carefully lower chickens into oil. (If using pot, increase heat to high.) Fry chickens until cooked through and instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 165°F, about 25 minutes.
  • To avoid oil spills, very carefully and slowly lift chickens from oil. Using tongs, transfer chickens to rack set over baking sheet. (If using pasta pot, repeat with remaining chicken halves.)
  • Cut whole chickens into quarters (cut chicken halves into 2 pieces). Serve.

  • Thoroughly rinse the chicken pieces, then place them in a bowl and cover with 4 cups of the buttermilk. Soak in the fridge overnight or up to 24 hours. When you're ready to fry the chicken, remove the bowl from the fridge and let it sit on the counter for 30 minutes, just to take the chill off. In the meantime, preheat the oven to 360° and mix up the breading. Place the flour, seasoned salt, paprika, black pepper, thyme and cayenne (plus extra cayenne if you like heat) in a very large bowl. Stir together well. In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk and the milk. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and gradually mix with a fork until there are little lumps throughout; these will adhere to the chicken and make for a crispier breading. If necessary, add a little more flour or milk to make the breading slightly lumpy. Heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 365°. Lower the heat slightly, if necessary, to keep the oil from getting hotter. Working in batches, thoroughly coat each chicken piece with breading, pressing extra breading onto the chicken if necessary. Place the breaded pieces on a plate. Add the breaded chicken to the oil, 3 or 4 pieces at a time; make sure they don't stick together. Cover the pan and fry for 5 to 7 minutes, checking occasionally to make sure the chicken isn't getting too brown. Turn the pieces over, cover again, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes more. All the while, monitor the temperature of the oil to make sure the chicken doesn't burn. Transfer the fried chicken to a baking sheet and continue frying the rest of the chicken. When all the chicken has been fried, remove the wings and legs to a rack set over a paper towel-lined baking sheet and keep covered. (These should be cooked all the way through by now, but always check if any pink juice or meat is visible. If so, return to the hot oil for another minute or so, until fully cooked.) Leave the thighs and breasts on the baking sheet. Bake the thighs and breasts for 15 minutes to finish cooking. (You can cut into the thicker part of one of the larger pieces just to make sure the chicken is cooked through. If any pink juice or meat is visible, the chicken needs to continue cooking in the oven.) Drain on the rack set over the baking sheet.

CROCK POT WHOLE CHICKEN RECIPE - FOOD.COM
Tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken! Skip the overnight refrigeration if you are in a hurry. For variety, eliminate the onion and substitute a quartered lemon or two, stuffed into the chicken cavity. Chef Shapeweaver had a good suggestion: Use Fajita Seasoning Mix #28011 as another variation. Thanks! The standard size slow cookers are a bit too small and a whole chicken won't fit. You'll need a 6-quart slow cooker for this recipe.

MOIST ROASTED WHOLE CHICKEN RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I found a version of this recipe online somewhere and used it to take a roasted chicken to church for a special sampling of foods you can get from ordering foods from Angel Food Ministries. (http://www.angelfoodministries.com/) Everyone raved about it and since I am going to roast one for home today I decided to add the recipe here too. This is a well seasoned bird which is cooked with high heat for the first 20 minutes then cooked the remaining 40-50 minutes at a lower temperature. This makes the chicken nice and moist and very flavorful. It's easy and quick to prepare as well.
