Crispy Curry Fried Chicken

"This is a Rachael Ray recipe for a different fried chicken. I do love me some good old Southern fried chicken, but I'm also pretty crazy about curry. Can't wait to see how this turns out! Marinating time is not included in prep time."

directions

  • In a small bowl, mix together the curry, chili, onion and garlic powders, poultry seasoning, celery seed or ground cardamom and lime zest, and set aside.
  • In a large bowl with a lid or a large, re-sealable plastic bag, add half of the spice mixture, the chicken and the yogurt, and marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • In a large paper bag, shake up the flour and the other half of the spice mixture. Add half of the marinated chicken pieces and shake it to coat. Remove the coated pieces, add the other half of the chicken and repeat.
  • Heat a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat with oil. When bubbles rapidly roll away from a handle of a wooden spoon inserted into the oil, it's hot enough to fry the chicken. (If you have an oil thermometer, it should read 350ºF.) Avoid overcrowding the pan, so cook the chicken in 2 batches, if necessary. Cook smaller pieces for 10 minutes, turning occasionally, cook larger pieces for 12-15 minutes total. Let the finished pieces drain on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet.
