- **RECIPE, MAKES 8 PIECES**
3-3.5 pound chicken
Salt
Pepper
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Cayenne pepper
Up to 1 cup buttermilk
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 heaped teaspoon baking powder
Vegetable or peanut oil
Cut the backbone out of the chicken using a pair of kitchen shears and discard. Cut the chicken in two by cutting between the breasts down through the breast bone. Cut the leg quarters off the breasts. Cut the legs from the thighs. Cut each breast into two parts of roughly equal mass, one with the wing still attached. You should now have 8 pieces of similar size.
Season all sides of the chicken liberally with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Season conservatively with cayenne. Place the chicken into a gallon ziplock bag and pour in just enough buttermilk to coat the chicken in a thick paste. Close the bag and smush it around until everything is coated. Brine in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours.
In a large lidded tupperware, place flour, 1 teaspoon salt, baking powder, and lots of pepper. Shake to combine. Remove chicken from the bag one piece at a time, scraping off excess buttermilk. Put four pieces in with the flour mixture. Put on the lid and shake to coat. Remove chicken to a wire rack and repeat with the remaining pieces.
Crack an egg into the bag and beat it roughly to mix it with the remaining buttermilk seasoning paste. Return all the chicken to the bag, close, and smush it until everything is coated again. Bread the pieces in the flour again, as before. Allow to sit on the rack for 30 min before frying.
Preheat two 10-inch skillets on medium heat, each with half an inch of oil in them. When oil is hot, add all four breast pieces to one pan, and all four dark meat pieces to the other. Put them in skin-side down. If necessary, add more oil so that it comes halfway up the sides of the pieces.
Fry the chicken at a gentle sizzle, which is an oil temperature of about 250 F. You’ll probably need to turn your burners down to near their lowest setting. Flip the pieces after 10-15 min, when a crust has fully formed on the underside. Fry the opposite side for 10-15 minutes. Turn the heat back up to medium and fry, flipping often, until all sides are sufficiently golden and the white meat temperature is reading 160 F. (The dark meat will be sufficiently cooked by the time the white meat is ready, and is not as sensitive to being over-cooked.) Remove chicken to a rack and cool 10 minutes before eating.
MY COOKING PHILOSOPHY:
I don't like weighing or measuring things if I don't have to, and I don't like to be constantly checking a recipe as I cook. I don't care that volume is a bad way of measuring things - it's usually easier. I like for a recipe to get me in the ballpark, and then I like to eyeball and improvise the rest. If you're like me, my goal with these videos is to give you a sense of how the food should look and feel as you're cooking it, rather than give you a refined formula to reproduce. - Jak na to + styl

I like how you portioned the chicken, especially removing the back bone as I've never seen it done before and giving more meat to the wing was genius.

What I like about your Channel is that you don’t underestimate our poverty
He does underestimate our appetites though, but I guess I should expect that from a skinny californian (he wasn't born in Macon fyi).
Still a fan tho mostly cause his recipes are pretty solid and he knows how to meme.

One of my favorite videos so far. He's a really good teacher and has a comment sense approach to complex subjects 👍
I LOVED this video! I am a woman in my 60's from a southern family.... I found this video wonderful!! (vinegar leg is on the right). I have been frying chicken for many years. My Mother kept telling me I was doing it wrong (vinegar leg on the right). She ooed hers so high and fast. I cook more slow and steady (vinegar leg on the right). Your way is soooo much better (maybe I think that because it's also MY way. (vinegar leg on the right)
so... vinegar leg on the left?

Guys.. I think the vinegar leg is indeed on the right..
I’m 15 and surprised my parents with this on a Friday as a surprise dinner while they were out at the store, they actually came out pretty well for my first ever actual meal cooked, my parents got pretty mad at me for it though because ya know? A 15 year old handling boiling oil and all that, but they forgave me once they actually tried it! Thanks for this!
Bruh why would your parents be angry that's pretty shit parenting. Good job!
@@thatgushiekid1662 ah yes letting a 15 yar old getting boiled by hot oil is great parenting!
@ThatGushieKid its not shit parenting, its called being worried for ur kid. Op said that this is the first proper meal they ever made, if i was their parent i would be a little mad too.
Im also 15 and i have been cooking with my mother ever since i remember so my parents wont be mad if i deep fried without supervision, but i would never let a new cook deep fry unsupervised.
Pls stop being so sensitive -_-
@@sadiyashahriar5648 That's true, if anything it's great parenting
@@sadiyashahriar5648 yeah, kid makes an effort to surprise their parent, things are obviously fine which means kid is either smart enough or lucky, let's get mad because we have the ability to regulate emotions equivalent to an 8 year-old. It's definitely gonna get across how worried we were and they will understand that with no emptional distress whatsoever instead of getting a nasty shock as the appreciation they expected for trying to make us a surprise is subverted by an angry reaction. Seriously, it's an irrational reaction. Are they assuming that OP is so daft they wouldn't understand the risks if they were to explain it politely? Seriously, what the fuck.
"It's not even a sizzle, it's more of a fizzle."
You're right fo'shizzle!!
I love making everything you make I made this and it tasted super good!
