For Perfect Fried Chicken
This Summer, Break the Rules
by Mark Bittman
I am here to argue that when it comes to a Memorial Day feast, fried chicken is a legitimate alternative to grilling. If there is one food that is more easily and reliably fried than grilled, it is chicken, which often as not is incinerated when cooked over flames. And if there is one special home-cooked dish that has near universal appeal it is fried chicken, not grilled hamburger.
What makes it necessary to argue in fried chicken's favor is not its appeal. No, what holds fried chicken back is the perceived challenge of preparing it.
You say: It's messy, it's smelly, it's scary, and it might not work. I say: I can minimize the mess, reduce the smell, remove the fear and nearly guarantee perfection.
I can even offer you a surprisingly good version of oven-roasted "fried" chicken. Want to try?
