Buttermilk Panko Crusted Oven Fried Chicken Recipes

OVEN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place a large wire rack over an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet, spray wire rack with non-stick cooking spray.
• Pour Panko into a shallow mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss and rub with fingertips to evenly moisten.
• Add paprika, thyme, garlic powder, cayenne pepper and season with salt and pepper to taste then toss.
• In a separate shallow mixing bowl, whisk together egg whites, salt and pepper until slightly frothy.
• Working with one pieces of chicken at a time, dip both sides of chicken in egg white then transfer to Panko mixture and dredge both sides in mixture while pressing crumbs to adhere, sprinkle some crumbs over top as well and press.
• Transfer to prepared wire rack spacing evenly apart.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through (center of thickest portion should register 165ºF on an instant read thermometer), about 50 minutes. Serve warm.

BUTTERMILK PANKO-CRUSTED OVEN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Marinate chicken in buttermilk, thyme, cayenne, and garlic powder for 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix the panko crumbs with the all-purpose seasoning. Panko bread crumbs really make this chicken, so don't substitute if possible.
• Without rinsing the chicken, dredge in beaten egg, then bread crumb mixture.
• Place breaded chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet.
• Spray chicken with a little non-stick spray.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until coating is crispy and juices run clear.

PANKO CRUSTED FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Wash your chicken breasts and pat dry. Utilize a container that has a lid and place the chicken breasts inside. Sprinkle the chicken with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Pour in the hot sauce and buttermilk and blend until well mixed. Sprinkle with a dash of parsley, cover and place in refrigerator overnight. You can marinate for less time, however I've come to the realization that overnight really does create a juicer tastier chicken.
• 2. In a frying pan, pre-heat grapeseed oil (or any cooking oil you use). In a shallow plate place about half the bag of panko crumbs. Sprinkle the panko with a tablespoon (or less) of paprika and mix around. Lift a piece of chicken out of the buttermilk marinade and gently shake to remove any excess marinade. Place the chicken in the middle of the crumbs and begin covering with the panko. Press down to ensure the crumbs form a nice layer. Gently place the chicken in the frying pan. Repeat, until all pieces are cooked. When you're frying the chicken you want to make sure you only turn the chicken once, you don't want to lose the panko along the way. Wait until browned on one side before flipping over.
• 3. Place the cooked chicken on a shallow plate on top of a paper towel (helps absorb excess oil). I like to finish the cooked chicken with a sprinkle of sea salt; it gives the chicken an added zing! Garnish with another sprinkle of parsley. Enjoy with buttermilk mashed potatoes and a crisp green salad on the side. This chicken actually keeps well as leftovers.

TRULY CRISPY BUTTERMILK OVEN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Marinate: Whisk together all ingredients for the marinade (except for the chicken) in a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces, making sure they're all well coated. Cover and place in the fridge for one hour up to overnight. (If your'e short on time, simply place all the ingredients in a zip-loc bag and massage the chicken for a few minutes. Let it sit in the fridge for 10 minutes before using.)
• Prep the pan and oven:Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C). While the oven is preheating, place a dark, rimmed roasting or baking pan in the oven to heat up (more info in the post).
• Mix the dry coating:Place all ingredients for the dry coating in a large bowl. Mix well.
• Mix the wet coating: To a separate bowl, add the eggs and 2/3 cup buttermilk. Whisk very well.
• Coat the chicken pieces: Shake off any excess marinade. Dredge the chicken through the flour mix, shaking off any excess. Dip in the egg mix, making sure the chicken is evenly covered. Dredge through the flour mix once more, making sure the chicken is evenly covered, shaking off any excess.
• Bake the chicken:
• Place butter and chicken on pan: Carefully remove the hot pan from the oven, using oven gloves. Melt the butter on it, then place the chicken pieces on top without overcrowding the pan.
• Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). Finish by broiling for a few minutes, until golden and crispy.
• Serve: The chicken will feel soft right as it comes out of the oven. Let it sit for 2 minutes before serving, it will crisp up. Don't let it sit for a long period of time before you eat it, or it will start turning soggy.
