Hey, I’m trying to make fried chicken. I MUST today, for the sake of my future confidence and the joy of my day TODAY. I want to use chicken breast, thighs are too fatty for me.
How? I’m looking up recipes but they all seem so disingenuous. I know that sounds stupid, but I thought maybe asking real people would give me a better chance.
Chicken breast, buttermilk. Those are the only ingredients I feel like I must use. Anyone have any advice on the fried chicken? I’ve got regular canola oil, olive oil, extra virgin, and I’m waiting to visit the grocery store. I was about to go but I just don’t feel confident. Please, anyone have a list of ingredients worth using together?
Commenting to see what answers you get. I tried many times to make fried chicken. Only thing I can do so with success is drumsticks. Every recipe and YouTube video I followed not worked. Breast, theighs I get either crispy outside but under cook inside. To get it cooked to eatable temp always burns the breading. Don’t know what to do myself to cook perfect fried chicken but love to know.
Never be afraid to finish wings in the oven, mate. The outside will hardly cook much more and you can take your time bringing the middle to temp.
Cook to chicken through at a lower temp, then when everything is done, raise heat and flash-fry the breading to finish. I posted the technique in another top level
Please, we need help
I let my raw chicken sit out of the fridge to come up a bit in temp. That and I’m a fan of double frying
