Make Perfect Fried Chicken
To make your own perfect fried chicken, begin with fresh poultry purchased from Redner’s Markets. We sell all of the ingredients needed for your chicken frying endeavors at the lowest prices possible.
Get the Perfect Golden-Brown and Crispy “Skin”
Excellent fried chicken isn’t patchy. It’s not too dark or too light; it’s golden brown with a bite that begins with a satisfying crunch. The texture can’t be greasy, either. The exterior should be dry without excess oil, and the breading, aka the “skin,” should exude flavor that continues with the meat.
We have two tips to achieve this degree of golden-brown perfection. First, use buttermilk as a binder when dredging, and second, double-dredge: first making a glue and then applying a second coating for crispiness.
Preserve the Internal Moisture of the Meat
Keep your chicken from drying out by marinating it in buttermilk or heavily seasoned saline and cooking it at a consistent 325°F. The meat needs a chance to cook before the crust begins to burn. Proper prep and cooking will lead to perhaps the most important aspect of excellent fried chicken: moisture. Just about anyone can season and brown meat, but keeping it juicy is a skill that takes time and science to perfect.
Pursue Powerful Flavor
Genuinely delicious fried chicken offers flavor in every bite. Achieve these results by seasoning the batter, the marinade, and perhaps even a finishing drizzle. Top choices for fried chicken seasonings include:
- Garlic
- Onion powder
- Paprika
- Cayenne
- Thyme
- Black pepper
- White pepper
- Salt
Select the Best Size and Cut of Chicken
When choosing chicken pieces for frying, select bone-in, skin-on dark meat. Thighs and drumsticks are ideal since they aren’t too big and dark meat generally comes out juicier and tastier. If you choose big pieces, you might find the meat dries out before it’s cooked all the way through.
