Guys - I'm super excited about this post, I'm pretty sure it's the first one from PJ (sorry P, as an adult she likes to be called Paige but she's been PJ forever hahaha!) and I'm so impressed - for real I had no idea she can cook! And it's legit real food haha - fried chicken, which I'm still too scared to make so...way to go P!! Thanks for sharing, this looks great! :)
ingredients she uses to season the chicken: creole seasoning, pepper, garlic and herb, steak blend, montreal steak seasoning, garlic powder, buffalo sauce and yellow mustard. You'll also need buttermilk, pickle juice, flour, and oil to fry in.
What to do, in Paige's words:
Step 1: towel dry your chicken, place in a big bowl, coat your chicken with a light layer of hot sauce and mustard.
Step 2: add about half a tablespoon to a full tablespoon of each seasoning. (Or whenever your heart tells you to stop)
Step 3: fully coat the chicken with butter milk and set in the fridge from anywhere between 2-12 hours.
Step 4: put flour in a pan or a plate and season the flour with the same seasonings you used for your chicken.
Step 5: take the chicken from the bowl of milk and coat each piece of chicken in flour, let stand for 10 minutes and then coat again in the flour and let sit again for 5 minutes.
Step 6: while coating your chicken in the flour heat up your oil on the stove. when it’s between 325-350 degrees place your chicken in your oil and fry on each side for nine minutes each flipping only once. remove chicken from oil and place on paper towels to soak up the grease.
Oh wait - in the milk bowl mixture add half a cup of pickle juice as well!! It was so juicy and crispy, very good.
