fried chicken


First, I combined buttermilk, thyme, salt, and pepper and mixed until it was all together for the brine. Next we added the chicken into a medium container and made sure it was fully covered before before putting it into the fridge overnight.  Once the brine was finished I took the chicken out of the bowl and added it into the breading mixture. I then preheated the oven and skillet to 350 degrees.  For the breading I mixed together flour, salt, pepper and a little bit of Cajun seasoning. I then put each piece of chicken in the mix. After the skillet was fully heated I then began frying.  I added enough oil that each people of chicken would have enough.  I fried each piece of the chicken until each side was a golden brown. When the chicken would finish frying you would then move it to the cooling rack to sit.  After all the chicken was done frying I put it into the oven at 350 for 30 minutes.  Checking their internal temp after 25 minutes to see if they were at 165 degrees.  Once the temp was at 165 degrees you knew that the chicken was done and ready to be taken out of the oven. Once the chicken is done and you can taste it you will tell that the outside will be a nice golden brown and crispy and the meat inside will be so juicy and tender.  Besides the fact that the chicken was greasy it was an overall great dish.
