FRIED TURKEY

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 to 5 quarts peanut oil
1 whole turkey (8 to 9 pounds), at room temperature
Salt
2 tablespoons butter
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves

Steps:

  • In 10-gallon outdoor cooker pot with a basket insert, begin heating the oil over a very hot propane flame outdoors to 390 degrees F. Do not set the burner to its highest setting, as you may need to increase the heat after you have added the turkey. It will take about 20 minutes for the oil to heat.
  • Meanwhile, rinse the turkey well, pat it dry inside and out, and set it on end in a sink to drain.
  • When the oil reaches 350 degrees F, pat the turkey dry again, and sprinkle it with salt. Place the turkey in the basket and carefully and slowly lower the basket with the turkey into the oil. Immediately check the oil temperature and adjust the flame so that the temperature does not drop below 300 degrees F; maintain the temperature at 325 to 350 degrees F. As it cooks, occasionally move the bird around in the oil with tongs so that it does not scorch.
  • Whole turkeys take only 3 to 5 minutes per pound to fry to perfection. When it is done, the turkey will float to the surface with a perfectly crispy, browned skin. If you are unsure, you can test the meat for doneness by inserting an instant-read thermometer deep into the thigh meat or breast meat; it should register 180 degrees F.
  • Using the basket insert, carefully remove the turkey from the oil and hold it over the pot for a moment to allow any excess oil to drain back into the pot. Then lay the bird on the oven rack and allow it to rest for 20 minutes before carving.
  • Just before carving, melt butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Add parsley, stir to combine, and cook until just sizzling. Carve turkey as desired, drizzle slices with butter sauce, and serve immediately.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 large eggs, beaten
A few dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 small to medium turkey drumsticks (about 1 pound each)
Vegetable oil, for frying
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3 to 4 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Hot sauce, such as Tabasco, optional
Sliced scallions, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the turkey: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and place a cooling rack over a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Mix together the milk, eggs and hot sauce in a shallow dish, such as a pie pan. Set aside.
  • Stir together the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, 2 teaspoons salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper in a separate shallow dish.
  • Pat the turkey legs dry and sprinkle with some salt and pepper. Place 1 turkey leg in the flour mixture and turn to coat. Transfer the turkey to the egg mixture and turn to coat. Return the turkey to the flour mixture and turn to coat. Shake off any excess coating and place the coated turkey on a clean plate. Continue the coating process with the remaining turkey legs.
  • Heat about 3/4 inch oil in an extra-large skillet over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 325 degrees F (do not allow the oil to go above 325 degrees F). Fry the turkey legs in batches until golden brown on each side and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat (not touching bone) registers 165 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes per side. Transfer the finished turkey legs to the rack on the baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you fry the rest.
  • For the gravy: After all the turkey is fried, pour the oil into a heatproof bowl and reserve; do not clean the skillet. Return the skillet to the stove over medium-low heat. Add 1/4 cup of the reserved oil to the skillet and, once hot, sprinkle the flour over the top. Whisk until combined and continue to cook, whisking constantly, until the flour mixture turns a deep golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in 3 cups milk, whisking constantly, and add the garlic powder, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook, whisking occasionally, until the gravy is smooth and thick, 5 to 10 minutes. Add more milk if the gravy becomes too thick. Season with salt, pepper and a few dashes of hot sauce, if using.
  • Spoon the gravy on a large serving platter and place the warm turkey legs on top. Sprinkle with sliced scallions and serve with additional gravy alongside.
