Fried Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the biscuits: In a bowl, use a fork to mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add butter and use the fork to mash it into the flour until the mixture resembles large, lumpy crumbs. Stir in milk until a dough comes together.
• Flour your hands, then gently gather and knead the dough in the bowl for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it springs back slightly to the touch. (If the dough is sticky, sprinkle additional flour as needed.) Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and rest dough in fridge for half hour.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough to 1 to 1 1/2 inch thickness. Use a floured knife or round cutter to cut 6 biscuits, about 3 1/2 inches wide. Reroll the scraps and cut again as needed.
• Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have puffed up and the tops are slightly golden. Let cool completely on a wired rack at room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container if not using until the next day.
• Prepare the chicken: Trim excess fat and any membranes from the meat, then lightly hammer the thickest parts of the thighs with a mallet or rolling pin. Season each side with salt.
• Mix flour, cayenne and salt in one wide bowl. Beat eggs in a second wide bowl, and place panko in a third. Dip each chicken thigh in flour, coating it all over and patting off the excess, then in egg, allowing extra egg to drip off, then in panko, making sure each thigh is entirely coated in bread crumbs, and using your hands to press loose crumbs into any places where they look scarce.
• In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, pour in oil to a 2-inch depth and heat to 350 degrees. Fry 2 thighs at a time, flipping them over every two minutes or so, until golden brown and crisp all over, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a wire rack set over a paper towel-lined sheet pan and season lightly with salt. Let cool entirely at room temperature, at least 1 hour. At this point, you can assemble the sandwiches or transfer the rack to the fridge and leave the chicken uncovered overnight.
• Assemble the sandwiches: When both the chicken and biscuits have cooled (or the next day), mix together soft butter, honey and hot sauce until smooth. Cut open cooled biscuits, smear each cut side with honey butter, and sandwich with a piece of chicken. If traveling, loosely wrap each sandwich in a piece of parchment paper and pack side by side in a hard container, in a single layer, so the sandwiches aren't crushed. Serve with additional hot sauce and pickles on the side.

Steps:

• 1. Sift dry ingredients together, cut in shortening. Roll out on floured surface, knead 10-20 times. Roll out dough with rolling pin til about 2" thick cut biscuit shapes with cutter or I use a juice cup!
• 2. Heat oil in heavy skillet to med high. Fry biscuits until golden on each side.
• 3. I dip 1/2 in a cinnamon and sugar mix for desert and use the other half to go with dinner! Yummo!!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water.
• Stir in other ingredients, and enough flour to form a soft dough.
• Knead lightly for 5 or 6 minutes then form into a ball.
• Let dough rise till doubled, 40 - 60 minutes.
• Punch down dough and turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Roll out to 1/2" thickness and cut with 1 1/2" biscuit cutter.
• Let biscuits rise for 15 - 20 minutes while frying oil/fat heats.
• Heat frying oil/fat to just over 350 degrees F.
• If fat is too hot, the biscuits will be soggy in the center.
• Drop biscuit into the hot fat, a few at a time.
• Fry for 1 or 2 minutes till golden on the bottom.
• Flip each biscuit over (if it doesn't flip by itself!) and fry until golden brown.
• Drain on absorbent paper.
• Cut a biscuit open to check for doneness, and adjust frying time if needed.
• Serve warm with lots of apple butter, to be authentic.
• These freeze well - just reheat wrapped in foil in a warm oven.

Steps:

• Mix the sugar, cinnamon, and sesame seeds in a medium-size bowl.
• Pop open the tube of dough and pull apart the biscuits-they come preportioned, so this will be easy. In a big, heavy pot, heat the shortening over high heat; you'll know it's ready when a tiny piece of biscuit dough sizzles when added to the oil. Fry the biscuit dough until each piece becomes puffy and brown on all sides, about 2 minutes. Flip the pieces over and fry them for 2 minutes more.
• Pull out the doughnuts and rest them on paper towels for a minute or two, then toss them immediately in the sugar mixture.
• Repeat. Eat. Get bloated.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place biscuits 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in preheated oven for 8 to 11 minutes or until golden brown.
• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain and set aside.
• In a large bowl, beat together eggs and milk. Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Scramble eggs to your liking.
• Cut open biscuits, lightly butter, layer with eggs, bacon, and cheese.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in milk and let stand 10 minutes or until foamy.
• Stir in shortening.
• Gradually add flour, sugar and salt and mix until smooth.
• Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let stand until doubled (2 hours).
• On a floured board roll dough into rectangle 1/4 inch thick.
• Heat oil in deep frying or large skillet to 375-degrees F.
• Cut dough with biscuit cutter (or use a drinking glass) and drop a few at a time into the oil.
• When biscuit is puffed and brown turn and brown other side.
• Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• These can be made ahead and reheated in a 200-degree oven for 5-10 minutes.
