Cooking and baking are some of my favorite things to do. I’ve always known that I loved baking. I’ve always been good at cooking, but I never thought I would love it just as much. Turns out I absolutely completely enjoy them both.
I have several recipes that I’ve saved while baking because baking requires precision when measuring ingredients. I have a few meal recipes saved as well, but not that many because I usually just throw it together myself without actually measuring.
So far, I think my fried chicken recipe has become my favorite.
I start by prepping the chicken, which includes tripping fat, slicing into tenders, and placing in marinade. My marinade consists of salt, creole seasoning, pickle juice, milk, water, splash of oil, chopped onion, and teaspoon of minced garlic in olive oil. Let sit for at least 30 mins.
In that time, I prep for the next step of making my chicken. I fill a pot half full of oil and set my thermometer in it and turn to medium heat.
I then grab a bowl and beat up 4 egg yolks and 2 whole eggs. Dash of salt and pepper added. In a separate bowl, I add flour, corn starch, and corn meal and mix. Then add salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, creole seasoning, onion powder, paprika, and mix.
Test the oil with little drops of flour. When it bubbles, it’s ready!
Drain half the marinade. Then coat in flour mixture, egg mixture, and flour again. Lay in away from you so it doesn’t back splash on you, and fry for around 4 minutes or until golden brown.
If you try my recipe, I hope you like it and please tell me about it.
