EMERIL LAGASSE TURKEY MARINADE

Steps:

• In the above recipe it looks like just a tablespoon of Crab Boil would hardly be noticed. Don't use more unless you are sure you want to. The word concentrated is there for a reason. This marinade needs to go in a food processor or blender for 5 minutes so that it doesn't clog the injector.
• Emeril uses this as his injection marinade in a turkey that he dry brines for 24 hours in 1 cup of salt, 1 Tablespoon cayenne, and 1 Tablespoon of freshly ground black pepper.

EMERIL'S FRIED CHICKEN CREOLE STYLE WITH GRAVY

Steps:

• First make the Creole seasoning.
• Mix all the Creole seasoning ingredients together and store the mixture in an airtight container.
• You will get about â..." cup and you won't need it all for this fried chicken recipe.
• Cut the chicken into 8 pieces. Use the salt and cayenne pepper to season the chicken pieces.
• Whisk 2 tablespoons of the milk with the eggs and add a pinch of Creole seasoning. Add another pinch of the seasoning to 3 cups of the flour.
• Dredge the chicken in the flour, then in the egg, ensuring the chicken pieces are completely covered. Let any excess drip off. Dip the chicken pieces again in the flour.
• Boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender, then mash in the butter and some cream or milk too if you prefer a creamier texture. Keep the mashed potatoes warm.
• Heat the oil in a skillet. Place half the chicken pieces skin side down in the hot oil and fry for 6 minutes.
• Flip the chicken pieces over and cook for 6 more minutes or until the chicken is cooked right through and golden brown.
• Drain the chicken on a paper lined plate and sprinkle more Creole seasoning over it.
• Fry the other half of the chicken pieces. Pour all the oil except ½ cup out of the skillet.
• Whisk in the rest of the flour and let the mixture cook for a few minutes, scraping the stuck-on bits of chicken off the skillet.
• Whisk in the rest of the milk and bring the liquid to a boil.
• Turn it down to a simmer and season with salt and black pepper.
• Cook this gravy for 6 minutes.
• You can add some water if it goes too thick.
• Serve the mashed potatoes and fried chicken with the gravy over the top.
