Gullah Fried Chicken Recipes

GULLAH RED RICE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice until the water becomes slightly clear. (This removes the starch.)
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large frying pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage, onion and pepper and cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften and start to brown at the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, sugar, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Stir rice into the tomato mixture and cook, uncovered, and stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer. Add just enough water to cover the rice (about 2 cups). Tightly cover with a lid or foil and bake for 30 minutes without uncovering the baking dish. Turn off the oven, remove the rice, fluff the rice, then cover and return to oven for 10 minutes more.

GULLAH FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Make egg wash by beating eggs with milk in a bowl. Season chicken well with Gullah Luv Seasoning or salt and pepper mixture. Cover and let sit for 10-15 minutes depending on size of the chicken. Heat oil to 350 degree. Dip each piece in egg wash. Then coat well in flour or breader. Shake off excess. Drop pieces into oil. (Make sure that oil is enough to cover each piece). Drop thighs, then legs, then breasts and last the wings in one-minute intervals. Set timer for 15 minutes. Check thigh and breast for doneness by inserting skewer or similar sharp object. When done, place in drain pan or allow to drip on paper towel.
