Crunchy Curry Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Rinse the chickens with water and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the chickens into serving pieces and place in a large bowl, reserving the backs, necks, and wing tips for stock or another use. Juice the limes and add the juice to the chicken along with the grated lime rind, coating the chicken with the juice.
• In a large skillet, heat 1/4 cup of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter, if using, over high heat until very hot. Pat the chicken dry again and carefully add half of the pieces to the skillet. Fry on one side for 3 to 4 minutes, shaking and tilting the skillet a little to distribute the fat. Turn the chicken over and fry for 3 minutes more, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken to a large platter and set aside.
• Pour out the old fat, wipe the skillet, and add the remaining 1/4 cup oil and 1 tablespoon butter, if using. Repeat the frying procedure with the remaining chicken pieces and then set aside.
• Discard all but 2 tablespoons of oil, reduce the heat to medium, and add the onions and garlic to the skillet. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute (be careful not to burn the garlic). Add the curry powder and fry for 1 minute, scraping the bottom.
• Add the tomatoes, whole Scotch bonnet pepper and slices, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly while scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the water and mix until well blended. Return the chicken to the pan. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is tender.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475°F.
• Place chicken in the center of a large rimmed baking sheet; season the outside with curry powder, salt, and pepper. Scatter carrots around chicken. Roast until chicken is cooked through, and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165°F, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan with a lid, bring 2 cups water to a boil; season with salt and pepper. Add rice; return to a boil. Stir, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and simmer 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and scatter lime zest over rice. Cover pan, and let steam 5 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to a plate. Sprinkle lime juice over carrots (still on hot baking sheet); toss, scraping up and incorporating any browned bits. Fluff rice gently with a fork; serve with chicken and carrots.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
• Next, rub the chicken all over with the vinegar.
• In a small bowl, combine curry powder, salt and pepper (if you think you may need more than one tablespoon of curry, go ahead and add more).
• Rub the curry mixture all over the chicken.
• Place the flour in a medium-sized bowl and gradually add the warm water, stirring, until a paste the consistency of yogurt forms (could need to add more water).
• Heat a skillet on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes and add vegetable oil until it is about 1/8 inch deep (this is a shallow frying recipe).
• When the oil is hot, dip the chicken into the flour batter, completely coating it.
• Add the chicken to the pan, frying on both sides for 4-5 minutes (per side) or until outside coating is golden and crispy.
• Add a bit of lime juice before serving.

Steps:

• Rub the chicken all over with the vinegar.
• Combine salt, pepper& curry powder and rub this mixture into the chicken.
• Mix flour& water together to make a paste about the thickness of yogurt, coat the chicken pieces (dip the chicken into the batter).
• Heat the oil in a skillet and when it is hot add chicken pieces.
• Keep a good constant sizzle to the frying chicken but regulate the heat so it does not burn the chicken.
• After 2 minutes rotate the chicken (do not flip yet) so the pieces are getting even heat& crispness on all the edges.
• After another 2 minutes (4 minutes total) flip the chicken and continue cooking the other side.
• Sprinkle with a little juice or vinegar just before serving.

Steps:
