Honey & Rosemary Fried Chicken - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 (3 -4 lb) chicken, cut into 8 to 10 pieces or 3 lbs chicken pieces
1 - 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon salt (or less!)
1 tablespoon white pepper
1 cup buttermilk
peanut oil (for frying)
Honey-Rosemary Glaze
3/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon butter
1 sprig rosemary, chopped
Preparation
-
Wash chicken and pat dry.
Mix flour with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip chicken in seasoned flour, then buttermilk, then seasoned flour again. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat oil to 325\u00b0F over medium-high heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, beginning with the dark meat. Keeping oil at 325\u00b0F, cook each side for 5 to 6 minutes covered and then 5 to 6 minutes uncovered, for a total cooking time of 20 to 24 minutes. Drain chicken on a wire rack.
To serve, drizzle Honey Rosemary Glaze over chicken, if desired.
For Honey Rosemary Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine honey, butter, and rosemary. Cook over low heat on stovetop until butter has melted. Stir to combine.
Chef's note: Use more flour to offset salt. Also, be sure you only \"warm\" honey--don't let it get hot enough to boil! I used chicken tenders (see photo).
