Buttermilk Fried Chicken With Green Chile Horseradish Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the buttermilk, hot sauce, thyme, garlic, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces, turn to coat, cover the bowl and refrigerate overnight.
• Whisk the flour, paprika and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl. Drain the chicken. Coat the chicken pieces in the flour mixture, shake off any excess and lay on a piece of parchment or wax paper.
• Set a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet. Fill a large skillet (cast iron preferred) with 3/4-inch of oil. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 340 degrees F. Working in batches, add the chicken skin side down, and cook, turning once, until the chicken is well browned on the outside and no longer pink near the bone, about 25 minutes total. The temperature of the oil will drop when the chicken is added to the skillet. Adjust the heat as the chicken cooks to maintain it around 250 degrees F. Transfer the cooked chicken to the prepared baking sheet. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Toss together chicken pieces, black pepper, salt, paprika, rosemary, thyme, oregano, sage, white pepper, and cayenne in a large bowl to coat.
• Stir in buttermilk until chicken is coated. Refrigerate for 6 hours.
• Combine flour, salt, paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, white pepper, and onion powder in a large shallow dish.
• Remove chicken from the buttermilk and dredge each piece in the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess and transfer to a plate.
• Heat peanut oil in a large Dutch oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Add all the chicken to the pan and cook for 10 minutes.
• Turn chicken pieces and cook for another 10-15 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the oil and transfer to a cooling rack set over a paper towel lined baking sheet. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Place chicken pieces in a bowl and toss them with buttermilk, 2 tablespoons salt and a healthy grind of black pepper. Cover and marinate for at least an hour and up to a day.
• Combine flour, 1 tablespoon salt and 2 teaspoons pepper in a large bowl or, ideally, a paper bag large enough to accommodate the flour and the pieces of chicken.
• Pour oil into a large, heavy-bottomed cast-iron skillet with high sides and a lid, to a depth of a few inches. Heat oil over medium-high heat to 350 degrees.
• Set a rack on a baking sheet or tray. Place the chicken pieces in the paper bag filled with the flour mixture and shake well to coat, or toss them in the bowl with the flour mixture to achieve a similar result.
• Shake off excess flour and fry the pieces of chicken skin-side down, in batches so as not to crowd the pan, for about 5 to 15 minutes, covered by the lid. Remove the lid, turn over the chicken pieces, and cook for about 5 to 15 minutes more, uncovered, until they are cooked through and a deep golden brown. Color is as or more important than time: Watch your chicken and get it out when it's golden brown.
• Remove chicken to the rack to drain and rest, sprinkle with salt and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• For the marinade, in a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, shallot, garlic, jalapeño, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper.
• With a rolling pin or a meat mallet, pound the chicken breasts between 2 sheets of parchment paper until they are evenly 1/2 inch thick. Slice each chicken breast in half crosswise so you have 2 pieces approximately the same size.
• Add the chicken to the marinade, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours but not more than 24 hours.
• Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, celery salt, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper and set aside.
• When ready to cook the chicken, preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Place a sheet pan with a baking rack on it in the oven.
• Pour the oil into a medium (9-inch round x 4 1/2-inch high) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, fitted with a candy thermometer, until the oil is 2 inches deep. Heat the oil over high heat until the temperature reaches 350 degrees.
• Meanwhile, lift the chicken from the marinade, dredge it well in the flour mixture, submerge it again in the marinade, then dredge again in the flour mixture, dusting off the excess. Transfer the chicken to a plate or sheet pan until ready to fry.
• When the oil is 350 degrees, lower three pieces only(!) carefully into the oil with a slotted spoon and adjust the heat to keep the oil at 350 degrees. Don't crowd the chicken! Cook for 5 minutes exactly, turning once to brown evenly. With the slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the sheet pan in the oven to keep warm. Fry the remaining three pieces, sprinkle all the chicken with salt, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Toss the chicken, buttermilk and 1 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate, 1 hour.
• Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 360.
• Mix the flour, paprika, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Remove the dark meat from the buttermilk, shake off the excess and roll in the flour mixture. Shake off the excess flour, place in the hot oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 15 minutes (adjust the heat as needed). Drain on paper towels.
• Reheat the oil to 360 degrees F. Repeat with the chicken breasts and wings, frying for about 15 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Whisk together buttermilk, mustard, salt and pepper, and cayenne in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 8 hours.
• When you are ready to cook the chicken, combine the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and onion powder in the other plastic bag. Shake to mix thoroughly. Transfer one marinated chicken piece at a time into the dry ingredient bag, and shake well to ensure complete coverage. After all chicken pieces are coated, repeat the process by dipping them in the buttermilk marinade and shaking in the dry coating again.
• Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, making sure not to burn the oil. When oil is hot, fry chicken in batches until golden brown and juices run clear, turning chicken to brown evenly.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Put the chicken and buttermilk in a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours. Put the seasoned flour in a shallow dish.
• Heat 1 inch of oil in a large, heavy skillet or Dutch oven over high heat to 350 degrees.
• Remove the chicken from the buttermilk and dredge in the flour on both sides. Gently place in the oil and cook in batches, turning, until golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to the paper towel- lined baking sheet. Allow the oil to return to 350 degrees between each batch.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the chiles, horseradish, and pickle relish. Cook for 3 minutes and add the heavy cream. Increase the heat to medium-high and let boil for 3 minutes, watching closely to make sure the mixture doesn't boil over. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then transfer to a blender or food processor and puree, being very careful with hot liquids in the blender, as they can overflow suddenly. Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer back into the saucepan. Add the remaining 8 tablespoons butter, season with salt, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is reduced to about 2 cups. It should be fairly thin. Keep warm until ready to use.
