PICNIC CHICKEN RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Mix together cumin, smoked paprika, 3 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, ¾ tsp. garlic powder, and ½ tsp. pepper in a small bowl.
• Arrange chicken on a rimmed baking sheet; sprinkle all over with spice mixture. Let sit at room temperature 30 minutes, or chill, uncovered, up to 12 hours.
• Combine flour, curry powder, paprika, and remaining 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, 2 tsp. garlic powder, and 2 tsp. pepper in a medium paper bag. Close bag and shake well to combine. Add chicken to bag, close, and shake well to coat.
• Pour oil into a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven to come 1" up sides; clip thermometer to sides of pan and heat oil over medium-high until thermometer registers 350°. Working in 2 batches and returning oil to 350° between batches, cook chicken pieces, turning halfway through, until deep golden brown, 10–15 minutes per batch (an instant-read thermometer inserted into each piece should register 160° for light meat and 165° for dark). Transfer fried chicken to a wire rack and let cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Cook and stir sausage in a skillet over medium heat until crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard any excess grease.
• Spread pizza dough evenly onto a 9x13-inch baking sheet; sprinkle with sausage and mozzarella cheese. Roll the dough around the sausage and mozzarella, using the method similar to rolling a cinnamon roll. Crimp the roll closed; place seam side down on baking sheet. Brush the roll with olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
