Gussiess Fried Chicken With Pecan Honey Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, oregano, and cayenne and mix until combined. In a another medium bowl, combine half of the spice mix with the flour, mixing until the spices are evenly distributed.
• Add the chicken to a large bowl and sprinkle with the remaining spice blend. Mix until all the chicken pieces are evenly coated.
• Pour the buttermilk over the chicken and stir until the residual spices from the chicken have blended in with the buttermilk to create a light orange color. Marinate the chicken in the fridge for 2 hours, or overnight.
• Heat the oil to about 325°F (160°C) in a large cast-iron skillet.
• Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip them back into the buttermilk mixture, then back into the flour. Make sure to shake off excess flour or it'll burn while frying.
• Fry 3-4 chicken pieces at a time, occasionally turning them over. Cook for 10-12 minutes, until golden brown, crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Rest the cooked chicken pieces on a wire rack to let excess oil drain off.
• Drizzle the chicken with honey, then serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat it dry.
• Beat the eggs in a 9x13" dish.
• Lay the chicken pieces in the dish, and sprinkle with salt, pepper & garlic powder.
• Turn the chicken and season the other side, then slosh the chicken parts around in the egg until well coated.
• Put enough oil in cast iron pot or electric skillet to come just halfway up the sides of the chicken parts.
• Heat the oil until just smoking, about 375°F.
• Put the flour in a paper bag, add the chicken pieces, a few at a time, and shake to coat well.
• Remove the chicken with tongs and place it it in the hot oil.
• Cover the pan, leaving a crack for steam to escape, lower the heat to 325F for electric skillet and cook for 10 minutes.
• Turn the chicken with tongs, cover again (leaving the lid open a crack) and cook for 10 minutes longer.
• Very large pieces may need to be cooked longer.
• Drain the chicken on paper towels and transfer to platter.
• To make the glaze, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat.
• Whisk in the honey until well blended.
• Bring to a simmer and add the pecans.
• Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Ladle the glaze over the hot fried chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat it dry. Beat the eggs in a 9 × 13-inch dish. Lay the chicken pieces in the dish, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Turn the chicken and season the other side, then slosh the chicken parts around in the egg until well coated. Place enough shortening or oil in a cast-iron skillet or electric skillet to come just over halfway up the sides of the chicken parts. Heat just until smoking (375 degrees). Place the flour in a paper bag, add the chicken pieces, a few at a time, and shake to coat well. Remove the chicken with tongs and place it in the hot fat. Cover the pan, leaving a crack for steam to escape, lower the heat (to 325 degrees for electric skillet), and cook for 10 minutes. Turn the chicken with tongs, cover again (leaving the lid open just a crack), and cook for 10 minutes longer. Very large pieces may need to be cooked a little longer. Drain the chicken on paper towels and transfer to a platter.
• To make the glaze, melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the honey until well blended. Bring to a simmer and add the pecans. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ladle the glaze over the hot fried chicken and serve.

Steps:

• Wash the chicken and pat dry. Place the buttermilk and eggs in a 9x13 baking dish and mix. Place the chicken into the buttermilk dish. With a spoon cover the tops of chicken with the buttermilk mixture. Set out for at least an hour flipping the chicken once after 30 min. You can also leave this in the fridge covered over night too for extra flavor and tenderness.
• Combine all the dry ingredients together in a baking dish. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and fry in the fryer for 12-14 minutes or deep skillet for 6-7 minutes on each side at 350 without crowding.
• Meanwhile while chicken is frying, melt the butter in a small sauce pan over med-heat . Pour in the honey and mix together with the butter. Place the pecans in the mix and bring to a boil on med heat and then quickly reduce to a simmer on low for 8-10 minutes mixing occasionally. Keep an eye on this because you don't want it to caramelize. Take off stove and set aside till all chicken is done frying.
• When chicken is done frying drain it on a paper towel lined plate. Transfer drained chicken onto a serving platter and drizzle the honey pecan glaze all over the chicken. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Wash and drain chicken.
• Soak in buttermilk (enough to cover the pieces) for at least 30 minutes.
• Heat shortening or oil to 375 degrees in an electric or cast iron skillet (should be enough hot oil to come half-way up the chicken when placed into the skillet). Place seasoned flour in a paper bag.
• Shake off excess buttermilk from chicken and drop into bag of flour, two or three pieces at a time, and shake to coat.
• (Option: For a thicker, crispier chicken, remove piecesfrom flour, dip in buttermilk a second time and shake them in flour mixture again.)
• Place coated chicken pieces in hot oil and reduce the heat to 325 degrees.
• Cook chicken for 10 minutes on one side, flip chicken over, and cook another 10 minutes on second side.
• Drain cooked chicken on paper towels.
• For the glaze, melt butter over low heat. Whisk in honey until blended.
• Bring to a simmer and add pecans.
• Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Ladle over hot fried chicken.
