A beloved dish enjoyed worldwide, fried chicken has a rich

 HISTORY
THE ORIGIN OF FRIED CHICKEN
There is no single inventor of fried chicken.
You may be surprised to learn
that it is much older than you think!
The first recipe developed around fried chicken was published in 1747
by English cook Hannah Glasse.
Yet fried chicken has been around for thousands of years.
Their countries of origin include China, the Middle East, and West Africa.
However, there have been many changes to the dish over the years.

To demonstrate how to fry chicken step-by-

step,
we're using buttermilk-brined fried chicken
recipe
If starting with a whole chicken, cut it into
its meatiest parts (drumsticks, thighs, and
breasts).
How to cook fried chicken
For tender, richly flavored chicken, use
buttermilk for your coating. (You can also
use regular milk or eggs if that's what you
prefer)
In a resealable plastic bag placed in a bowl,
combine buttermilk, coarse salt, and sugar.
Cut chicken breasts in half crosswise. Add
chicken pieces to the buttermilk mixture;
seal bag.
Chill 2 to 4 hours. Drain and discard
buttermilk mixture from chicken; pat
chicken dry with paper towels.

In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and

ground black pepper. Place ¾ cup buttermilk
in a shallow dish. Coat the drained chicken
with the flour mixture. Dip chicken in the
buttermilk. Coat again with the flour mixture.

In a Dutch oven, heavy pan, or a deep-fat

fryer, heat 1½ inches of oil to 350ºF. Using
tongs, carefully add a few pieces of chicken
to oil.
(Oil temperature will drop; maintain it at
350ºF).
Fry chicken for 12 to 15 minutes or until
coating is golden and chicken is no longer
pink.
Drain chicken on paper towels.
How to cook fried chicken
All poultry is safe to eat at 165ºF, but our
Test Kitchen finds different cuts taste
better at different temperatures. Test
doneness by inserting a thermometer into
the thickest part of the meat without
touching the bone.

Bone-in thigh and drumstick: at least 175ºF

Boneless thigh: 175ºF
Bone-in breast: 170ºF
Boneless breast/tenders: 165ºF
