Bajan Fried Chicken for Ms. Annie S
My favorite fried chicken! Not greasy and mmmm mmm yummy!
Start with the Bajan Seasoning! You need to do this a week in advance... you can half the recipe and replace the fresh herbs with half the amount of dry herbs.
BAJAN SEASONING
Ingredients
450g brown onions, chopped
140g spring onion, chopped
8 garlic cloves
4 big red chili
2 small red chili
60g fresh thyme
60g fresh parsley
60g fresh marjoram
1 1/2cup white vinegar
2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauces
1 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 tablespoon salt
Optional
Add a green mango
Method
Blend everything!!
Store it in a container and put it in the fridge for a week min before using.
FRIED CHICKEN
Ingredients
As much chicken piece as you would like...
Some potato starch
Method
Marinate the chicken in the bajan seasoning in a ziplock bag overnight in the fridge
Next day, coat the chicken with a little potato starch and fry it! I use a high saucepan to prevent splatters and fry the chicken. Use a long big needle to poke the chicken. If juices that flow out are grey, it's cooked... if it's red or pink, you need to cook it for longer.
This chicken is super yummy with Bajan Hot Sauce. Check out the next post for the recipe.
Hope you have fun cooking this Annie! Tell me how it turns out with the sous-vide!

Roasted Chicken with Jus for Ms. WOoooo
Optional prep
Brine chicken in salted water for an hour before cleaning and cooking
Brine = 1 tablespoon salt : 1 liter of water
Ingredients
Main
1 x 1.8kg Chicken
200g chicken wings
oil
s&p
Butter
Thyme
Bay leaf
Leek green leaf
Jus
1/2 onion cubed
1/2 carrot cubed
1 shallot
2 garlic cloves
Oven
200 C pre-heat
Method
I like to soak chicken in a salt water bath so that the meat is tender. Soak for 1 hr.
Prepare chicken by cleaning and use a blow torch to burn off any stray feathers followed by using paper to clean off the remaining feathers
Tie Thyme, Bay leaf and Leek leaf together - Aromatic Garnish "AG"
Salt the inside of the chick and put AG inside and a knob of butter
Truss chicken so that it remains juicy while cooking. To see youtube instructions => how to truss a chicken
Chop up chick wings and lay at bottom of baking tray to form a bed for the chick. You can add the chicken neck as well.
Put chicken on the side on top of it's bed, add knobs of butter and put in pre-heated oven for 15 mins.
Baste chicken and rotate to other side and baste for 15 mins.
Baste chicken and rotate to presentation side up, add JUS ingredients, and baste for 15 mins.
Check if chicken is cooked by turning chicken up over bowl to see if the juices are pink. Cook further till juice is grey.
Remove chick on tray, covered with aluminium foil for 10mins.
Take pan with chick juice and heat over stove for about 5 mins. Strain out Jus into a small pan and add cubes of small butter.
Heat Jus till consistency will cover the back of a spoon (a la nap)
Enjoy your chook honey bun! See you soon!
