Crispy Southern Fried Chicken

Ingredients

• All purpose flour
• Flour mix
• Cooking oil
• Chicken
• Pepper
• Salt
• Thyme
• Bread
• Smoked paprika
• Buttermilk
• Meat
• Shake
• Marinade
• Chicken pieces

Instructions

1. Pour the buttermilk into a tray or bowl, add one teaspoon of salt, mix through, and place the chicken pieces into the buttermilk. Depending on the size and shape of your bowl, you may need a little bit more buttermilk to ensure the chicken is covered. Cover with some cling film and place in the fridge for up to 8 hours.
2. Remove before frying to give enough time to bring the meat up to room temperature.
3. In a dish or bowl, combine the flour, half teaspoon of salt, smoked paprika, thyme, and pepper.
4. Combine with your fingers or a fork.
5. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk marinade and dispose of the marinade. Shake off most of the drips, then dredge the chicken in your flour mix, making sure each piece is covered completely.
6. Heat about 1.5 cm (0.5 in.) of oil in a heavy bottomed wide pan. While this is heating up, you can get a wire rack ready to drain the chicken. Do this by placing kitchen paper over the rack.
7. The oil temperature should be about 170C (340F) for frying. You can check by putting a piece of bread in the oil; it is ready when it fizzes and turns brown quickly. The time the oil takes to heat up will depend on the thickness of the metal of your pan, your stove top, and the quantity of oil you have used.
8. You will probably have to cook in batches so as not to overload the pan. Start with the thighs, which need a little bit more time than the legs.
9. Place each piece carefully in the pan and fry, covered, on a good strong simmer for anywhere between 8 to 12 minutes on each side. The heat needs to be high enough to give a nice brown color and a crisp finish.
10. Remove and set on the rack to drain. Then, do the same with the legs, giving them a couple of minutes less than the thighs.
