Re: looking for recipe: Fish and Chicken batter

[Guest guest]

It wouldn't be easy to duplicate KFC at home, because their chicken is cooked in a pressure cooker. Really, a home pressure cooker full of oil could be quite dangerous.

But I have good fried chicken recipes:

Fried Chicken

chicken, pieces, boned or bone in, either one

GF flour, red mill works well, or any bean flour based flour.

1 egg

2 Tablespoons milk

garlic salt

onion salt

GF season salt

ground pepper

paprika

oil for frying

1. mix together the flour and a shake of the spices (to your taste), Place the seasoned flour on a plate (I like a pie plate)

2. mix together the egg and milk

3. wash and pat dry the chicken pieces.

4. dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture and then dredge it in the flour.

5. add floured chicken pieces to a fry pan of hot oil. Do not let the pieces touch. You will have to fry the chicken in batches.

6. Lightly brown each side of the chicken and then remove to a baking dish.

7. once all the chicken has been placed in the baking dish, place the baking dish in the oven and bake at 350 until all the chicken is tender and well done. It will be more crisp if the pieces are not touching in the pan.

Buttermilk fried chicken

Chicken pieces, bone in or boneless, either one. This is exceptionally good with white meat chicken

1 cup fresh butter milk

1 egg

GF flour. Bobs red mill works well

salt

pepper

oil for frying

1.Mix together the buttermilk and egg

2. wash and pat dry the chicken pieces.

3. place the chicken pieces into a bowl or Ziploc bag.

pour the buttermilk over the chicken, seal tightly and put it into the refrigerator and let marinate for 1 hour.

4. Place the flour on a plate.

5. remove the chicken from the buttermilk and immediately dredge it in the flour.

6. lightly brown both sides of the chicken in hot oil, and place into a baking dish. Do not allow chicken pieces to touch when cooking if you want crispy chicken.

7. when all pieces of chicken are browned, shake a little salt and pepper over them and bake them in the oven at 350 degrees until the chicken is tender and well done.

Dipping sauce for fried chicken

melt apricot jam over low heat in a small sauce pan. Add mustard and stir well. This is a dynamite dipping sauce and no one will know how easy. The original recipe calls for 1/2 apricot jam, and 1/2 mustard, but that is way too much mustard for my taste. I use a small jar of jam, and add mustard 1 Tablespoon at a time, tasting as I go. With different types of mustard, the amount you use will be different.

Comments on flour for oven frying: rice flour and corn starch get hard and white when fried, so they aren't the best choice. I like the texture, flavor, and the fried batter effect of the bean flours. I use a mixture of bean, brown rice, potato flours. But the red mill, being a garbanzo flour works really well with batter fried meats. It makes a good chicken fried steak, too.

Just in case you can find a rice chex type cereal that is GF. Rice chex are not, but occasionally, I find a private label chex copy that is GF.

Pecan fried chicken

1 stick dairy butter

boneless skinless chicken breast pieces

slightly crushed imitation rice chex

chopped raw pecans

1. melt the butter gently you don't want it hot, just liquefied

2. wash and dry the chicken pieces

3. mix together the crushed chex and the pecans

4. dip the chicken into the melted butter

5. roll the butter coated chicken in the crumbs

6. place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake at 350 until golden brown and the chicken is done.

This recipe might work with GF bread crumbs or crushed rice crackers. The original recipe was for rice crispies, which I haven't been able to find a substitute for.

Pressure cookers are NOT made for deep frying.

Pressure FRYERS are something different all together, and would be used

in this instance of frying chicken.

Just didn't want anyone giving it a try.

(This recipe sounds great, btw!)

We roll in chicken in egg and milk and

then mix parmesan cheese with boxed instant potato flakes. Everyone loves the

batter. Fish, we do with egg/milk and gf crackers, glutino. It turns out

crispy.
