Applebee's Chicken Fried Chicken

Chicken
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts

"Egg Wash"
2 cups milk
2 eggs

Dusting
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper

Batter
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper

Coating
1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper

Country Gravy
3 cups milk
1 cup chicken broth, canned or from powder
1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
Salt (to taste)
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup cold tap water

Bring milk and chicken broth for gravy to simmer over low-medium heat (don't scorch).
Next, add garlic, onion powder, pepper and salt.
In a small cup/bowl, add corn starch to cold water and mix thoroughly until starch is dissolved.
Increase heat to gravy and slowly stir in the starch/water mixture as it bubbles and thickens.
Preheat vegetable oil in skillet or fryer to 350 degrees F at a 2-3 inch depth. Be careful not to exceed temperature to reduce the risk of fire.
Mix dry ingredients for "dusting" and "coating" in two large bowls until evenly mixed.
Mix dry ingredients for batter in large bowl until evenly mixed. Add oil; crack and add eggs, then milk and water. Beat by hand until lumps are minimal.
In order: place the chicken breasts one-by-one into the dusting and cover both sides with a thin layer of product; dip into batter and remove (allow excess to drain); place in breading and "seal" in batter with a dry, but not excessively thick, coating.
Fry immediately. Be careful not to remove coating from chicken breasts when handling and placing into the oil.
Fry for approximately six to eight minutes (time varies with equipment, amount of chicken and its thickness). Internal temperature should be a minimum of 165 degrees F.
Remove and drain on paper towel. Serve with your favorite side dishes

Just curious as to what the A 's mean in the measurements for some of the above recipes.

The A's you see are a computer glitch. You will find them in place of the word saute, also it will read 1 A1/2 c. (for example) for 1 1/2 c., etc. Other sites have had this happen as well. They were not originally posted that way. It's just an inconvenience!

Smile Re: Need a "good" recipe for Fried Chicken

Simply coat the chicken pieces with flour that has been seasoned with salt and pepper and fry in Crisco oil. Salt and pepper while frying, on each side and do not turn chicken until it is nice and brown and crispy on each side. The secret to the flavor, is seasoning it just right.

Default Re: Need a "good" recipe for Fried Chicken

I just posted a Fried Chicken recipe that you bake in the oven. It uses only 1 tablespoon of butter or margarine but it turns out nice and crispy. It's especially good for people who can't have all that grease. I'm not sure whether to repeat it here or just have people find it on their own. I just now posted it so it should be easy to find.

Hi Kitchen Witch,
I was going to try your Southern Fried Chicken but I don't seem to find the recipe for the 'House Seasoning' that was to follow. If it's right in front of me,I apologize. If not, would you mind sharing the recipe? Somehow, House Seasoning sounds great.
Thanx,
JoanieCooks

This recipe sounds like the one in the lady and sons cookbook. If it is the recipe is :
House Seasonings
1 c. salt 1/4 c. black pepper 1/4 c. garlic powder
Stir ingredients together and store in a shaker jar in the spice rack.This is a good all purpose seasoning for meats and vegetables.

That's it! It's something that we have used for a long time - but we use kosher salt, cracked balck pepper and minced garlic and we add parsely flakes.
