The chicken in this salad is air fried, which means it’s healthier than deep frying. The chicken is also coated in buttermilk and flour, which helps to make it crispy. The buttermilk and flour also help the seasoning to stick to the chicken rather than burning while frying.
When frying chicken, the oil needs to be at the right temperature. If it’s not, the breading won’t cook properly and the chicken will be soggy. A cooking thermometer will be your best friend when making fried foods!
Using this tool will ensure your meat is cooked through and the outside of the meat is crispy. The temperature can be read quickly and easily. It’s much easier to use than a traditional meat thermometer. This tool is also available in a digital format so it’s easy to use anywhere. It’s especially useful for outdoor barbeques and other grilled foods. It’s a must have in any kitchen.
Preparation
Southern fried chicken is not difficult to make, it just requires a few steps. First, the chicken must be seasoned. This is done by dredging the chicken in buttermilk and then flour. This is done so that the spices will not burn while the chicken is frying. Next, the chicken must be dredged in flour and then coated in an egg mixture. Finally, the chicken must be fried in oil. This is the most important step in making crispy fried chicken.
To prepare the seasoned chicken, remove the meat from its packaging and pat it dry. In a large bowl mix the eggs and milk and add ALMOST all of the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, cumin and paprika (reserve a small amount to season the chicken). Place 2 pieces of chicken in the egg/milk mixture and let the excess drip off. Then coat the chicken in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess. Repeat this process with the other two pieces of chicken.
Fill a deep pan with the vegetable oil. Using a thermometer, bring the oil to 350 F (the oil should be hot enough that a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds). Once the oil has reached temperature, place the chicken pieces in the pan and cook until golden and cooked through. If necessary, turn the chicken over and cook on the other side. Once the chicken is finished frying, drain it on a paper towel lined sheet tray and then serve.
