This unusual, old-fashioned technique sounded simple enough, but we had to work to achieve the picture-perfect, golden-brown crust and moist chicken that we were after.

Made this for my Son tonight. I’m single, retired and on a tight budget!Bought a pack of drumsticks for $5.55 and followed your recipe (used canola oil). My dinner visit with my Son was perfect. He loved it! Thank you for help making my night ❤

Canola oil is so horrible for you. Once a doctor sent me an article about canola oil. The lab rats they did studies on ended with neurological problems, blindness and death. It comes from the rapeseed plant. RAPEseed. Makes sense it rapes your body of everything. Its a manmade bioengineered plant. They use the oil for machinery as well. Do your body and mind some good and read up about canola oil and toss it in the trash!!

I made this recipe last night using boneless chicken breasts. Two comments: First, the cream gravy I made using homemade stock, flour, butter, and a tablespoon of heavy cream was a bit too thin and lacked flavor, so I dipped the tip of my whisk in the batter and briskly whisked it into the gravy… OMG, that was the best cream gravy I’ve ever made! Bursting with flavor and, of course, perfectly matched the chicken. Second, I thought the breading was way too hard, but after slicing the breasts for serving and drizzling with the cream gravy (also on some reheated Jasmine rice) the crispiness was perfect, especially when contrasted with the moist breast meat. This recipe is a keeper! Thank you!

Seasoning the batter properly is the trick and 300 to 325 degree fry temperature is a must. My proper internal temps took about 17 minutes for both white and dark meat doing it my way. End result, WOW! I'm lovin" the battered chicken recipe right now. Thank-you Julia.

Just a small tip on the brining. She mentions that you don't want to brine the chicken for more than 30 minutes or it will get too salty. You actually can brine it for longer than that, even days without it getting too salty. The trick is to taste your brine before putting in the chicken. Have the saltiness the same as what you would like it to be if it were cooked. That's how salty it will be when cooked if you're brining for longer. Longer brines make softer chicken (up to a certain point).

@mikezylstra7514 11 ай бұрын

I have found with today's old chickens, adding salt makes the meat tough & stringy, like goat meat. (draws the water out of the tissue I guess?) i never add salt until it's time to cook it. These are old birds you get in the store these days.

Actually I disagree with you Because unless you're going to change her brining recipe from half a cup so like a quarter cup of salt than she's telling you if you use her exact measurements of a half a cup of salt she's telling you if you do that for more than an hour IT WILL become too salty unless like I said you plan on changing the recipe and making it like a tablespoon of salt or something then that's different you can leave it longer but if you use her exact measurements for the brining she's telling you it will become too salty if you leave it in longer than 1 hour has nothing to do with tasting it because it will become too salty after 1 hour if you use her exact brining measurements

@@jackiewinters5792 The most important thing is to use a large pot, like the Dutch oven, because you never want a pot to be more than about half full of hot oil. The oil can foam up and start to overflow, and that's very dangerous (because the oil will be well over 300°, and how are you going to stop it from going everywhere). Also, start with a lower temperature than you need, and bring the oil UP to temperature, instead of starting to high, and bringing it down (which will burn the oil and make it taste nasty, as well as also being dangerous).

@@rapcat1271 You are wrong, you can air fry chicken. (1) Brush on the peanut oil. (2) Roll the chicken in the batter, the same kind shown in the video. (3) Air fry for about 12 minutes per side. (4) Enjoy great chicken. (5) Try this, you just may like it! 👍

The crunch noises it made when Julia took a bite is unreal!

i made this and really disliked the sweetness. like, totally ruined it for me. the coating also needed more seasoning. i will make it again but with no sugar and with some added garlic and onion powder.

As I’m watching this the smoke is 10+ here in Calgary. So sorry you are getting too. Canola fields are beautiful, I once drove the back way to Medicine Hat, and almost every field was in bloom with canola. So beautiful. Love and blessings to all of you. ❤❤❤
