Sriracha And Beer Fried Chicken With Sriracha Honey Glaze
- 3 lbs chicken pieces (thighs, legs, wings)
- 2 tbs kosher salt
- 1 sweet white onion, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 12 ounces pale ale
- 1 tbs sriracha
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tbs brown sugar
- 2 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- canola or peanut oil for frying
- For the Glaze:
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tbs sriracha
- Directions:
- Arrange the chicken in an even layer in a large baking pan.
- Sprinkle evenly with kosher salt, top with sliced onions.
- In a small bowl whisk together the buttermilk, beer and sriracha, pour evenly over the chicken, cover and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours.
- In a medium sized bowl stir together the flour, brown sugar, chili powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne.
- One at a time remove the chicken pieces, dredge in the flour mixture then gently re-dip in the buttermilk/beer marinade and recoat with the flour mixture (double coating of the flour mixture will give you a crispier chicken), set on a wire rack that has been set over a baking sheet.
- Allow the coated chicken to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 250.
- Add the oil to a large pot until about 6 inches deep, heat to 350 degrees using a cooking thermometer clipped to the pan, adjust heat to maintain that temperature.
- Working in batches fry the chicken until golden brown and cooked through (between 4 and 12 minutes each, depending on how thick the chicken and if the piece has a bone in it, use a meat thermometer to check for doneness).
- Once each piece is done, return to the wire rack and place baking sheet in the oven while the remainder of the chicken is cooking.
- Whisk together the honey and sriracha, drizzle over the chicken just prior to serving (alternately, it can be used as a dipping sauce).
