/blogs/recipes/fried-chicken 2021-05-10T14:36:02-04:00 2023-12-06T14:02:50-05:00 Fried Chicken Karla Stears SERVINGS: 8

Ingredients:

6 lbs / 2.5kg chicken pieces (thighs, drumsticks, breasts and wings)

1/2 cup / 120g all-purpose flour

1/4 cup / 60g freshly ground (coarsely) black pepper

3 tablespoons kosher salt

4 cups / 1 L vegetable oil

Procedure:

• In a sturdy brown paper or plastic bag, mix the flour, pepper and salt.

• Add the chicken to the mixture, a couple of pieces at a time. Close the bag and shake vigorously to coat. Shake off the excess flour and place the coated chicken in a large dish or on a baking sheet.

• In your ‘Sublime’ cookware, heat the oil over medium, until simmering. Try to maintain the oil at about 350°F/ 180°C for frying.

• Add the chicken pieces to the hot oil and fry over a moderate heat in 3 to 4 batches to not overcrowd.

• Turn the pieces often to ensure even cooking, until the skin turns golden and crispy; about 15 minutes for drumsticks, thighs and wings, and up to 20 minutes for breasts (a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion of chicken should register 165°F/ 75°C). Lower the heat if the chicken gets too dark.

• Transfer the fried chicken to a baking sheet lined with kitchen paper towels and keep in a slightly warm oven while preparing the rest. Season to taste and serve.

SERVINGS: 6

Ingredients:

1 ½ tbsp olive oil

3 lb/ 1 ½ kg beef chuck roast

Freshly ground pepper and salt

2 yellow onions peeled and cut into thick slices

4 garlic cloves, finely chopped

3 cups / 70 cl beef broth

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

1 ½ tbsp chopped fresh thyme

1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary

2.5 lb / 1 ¼ kg small Yukon gold potatoes

1 lb / 500 g, about 4 to 5 large carrots cut into 1 inch/ 2 ½ cm pieces

2 tbsp chopped parsley

Ìý

Procedure:

• Preheat the oven to 275°F/ 175 °C.

• In your ‘Sublime’ cookware, heat 1/2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion for a couple of minutes. Add the chopped garlic and sauté a little longer. Remove from the pot and reserve.

• Throw the carrots into the same hot pot and toss about a minute to slightly brown them. Reserve with the onions.

• Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Pat dry the roast with kitchen paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper.

• Sear the roast for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer the roast to a dish and reserve.

• Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire into the hot pot. Add the thyme and rosemary, then cook for about 30 seconds, long enough to deglaze the bottom of the pot, scraping up the browned residues.

• Lower the heat. Return the roast to the pot and add enough beef stock to cover the meat halfway. Pour over the onion mixture. Add the carrots and potatoes over the onions, and season with salt and pepper.

• Cover and roast in the oven for 3 hours (4h for a 4 to 5 lb / 2-2.5 kg roast). It is ready when the roasted meat, very tender, falls apart.

• Remove the pot from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, season and serve directly. Or plate the roast with the vegetables and serve with gravy.
