Oven Fried Chicken With Spicy Honey And Slaw Food

OVEN-FRIED HOT HONEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven: Set the oven rack in the center and preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and generously spray it with cooking spray. Set it aside.
• Bake the chicken: Generously spray the chicken with cooking spray. Bake it for 20 minutes. Then gently flip the chicken over, being careful not to peel off the breading, and bake for 10 more minutes. The breading should be a light golden brown; it may have a few darker spots. When cooked through, an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center should register 165°F.

HOT HONEY CHICKEN

Steps:

• Put the chicken thighs into a large bowl. Add the buttermilk and 1 teaspoon of sea salt and mix well. Put the bowl into your fridge for at least 20 minutes (or up to 8 hours.)
• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray it generously with spray oil.
• In a shallow bowl, mix the panko, flour, paprika, Italian seasoning, and the remaining teaspoon of salt.
• Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip it into the panko mixture and make sure that it is well-coated. Put the chicken on the baking sheet then continue to coat the rest.
• Spray the tops of the chicken with oil then put them into your oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden.
• While the chicken bakes, make the honey. In a small pan, warm the honey, chili flakes, and hot sauce over medium heat. Once the honey starts to bubble a little, remove the pan from the heat. Let it infuse for 5 minutes then strain the honey through a fine-mesh sieve.
• When the chicken has finished cooking, drizzle it with the hot honey and serve immediately.

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture. Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed stockpot to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 360 degrees F on a thermometer.
• Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

FRIED CHICKEN SANDWICH WITH HOT HONEY

Steps:

• Fried Chicken:.
• In a shallow baking dish whisk together flour, paprika, salt and pepper.
• Working in batches place the chicken in the flour mixture, turning to coat thoroughly. Pour the buttermilk in another shallow baking dish. Coat the chicken in the buttermilk then place back into the flour to coat one more time. Place the chicken on a wire baking rack over a sheet tray until ready to fry.
• In a cast iron pan add enough oil to fill about 2 inches up the sides of the pan. Heat the oil to 350 degrees over medium high heat. Fry the chicken in batches turning once until golden brown and cooked through. The breast should be done in about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and season with salt.
• Build the sandwiches by placing the fried chicken on a bun and topping with the slaw, hot honey and pickles.
• Slaw: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Hot Honey:.
• In a small saucepan combine ingredients. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes then remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature.

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN THAT'S AS GOOD AS FRIED

Steps:

• Adjust rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix eggs, mustard, thyme, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Put Melba toast crumbs in another shallow dish. Set a large wire rack over an 18 by 12-inch foil-lined jellyroll pan.
• Using 1 hand for dry ingredients and the other for wet, lay chicken pieces, 4 at a time, in egg mixture, roll to coat. Then lay 1 piece at a time in Melba crumbs. Press a mix of crumbs into top of chicken. Turn piece over and repeat, pressing crumbs into other side. Gently shake off excess.
• Set chicken on rack. Spray top portion of chicken pieces evenly with oil. Bake until chicken is nutty brown and juices run clear, 30 minutes for drumsticks and 35 minutes for thighs. Serve immediately.
