Y’all are in for a treat! In this delightful episode, Cowboy Kent Rollins invites us to step back into simpler times with a tribute to The Andy Griffith Show. Who can forget the iconic Aunt Bee and her delicious cooking? This time, Kent is showing us how to whip up a southern favorite: double fried chicken that’s just as crispy and comforting as it sounds!
What Makes This Dish Special
Kent’s fried chicken is not just any recipe; it’s a true homage to comfort food and the beautiful nostalgia of the past. The secret lies in the double frying technique, allowing that golden crust to form perfectly while keeping the meat juicy and tender. You’ll want to grab your cast iron skillet for this one!
Ingredients You’ll Need
To recreate this savory dish, here’s a brief list of the essentials:
- Whole chicken, cut into pieces
- Buttermilk for soaking
- Flour mixed with spices (Kent’s secret blend adds the magic!)
- Vegetable oil for frying
Perfecting the Technique
Kent walks you through his step-by-step process, sharing valuable tips along the way, like setting your oil temperature just right for that perfect sizzle. Trust him on this, too hot and the outside will burn while the inside stays raw—nobody wants that! So, aim for about 350°F for optimal frying.
And let’s talk about that crispy, crunchy skin—Kent emphasizes the importance of letting the chicken rest after frying. This not only helps lock in the juicy goodness but also keeps that coating intact when it’s time to dig in.
