Salted pecan honey glazed fried chicken

Emily

Ingredients

  • salted pecan glaze
  • 1 cup crushed salted pecans
  • 1 stick real butter-salted
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 2/3 cup honey
  • fried chicken
  • 6 piece chicken
  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp pepper
  • 1 lard for frying

Directions

  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper then flour it. I find that it sticks to the chicken better and the flour does not burn as easy. While the flower sets get a cast iron pan and put enough lard for frying it will depend on how big your pan is. You do not want it swimming in the lard but at least half the chicken should be covered.
  • Place chicken in with the bone facing the bottom. Because the meat closest to the bone takes the longest to cook, cook at least 9 minutes on that first side. Flip skin side down and finish cooking until skin is crispy and fully cooked through. Total time is approximately 15 minutes.
  • Melt stick of butter in shallow pot on medium. Right before it turns brown add your chili flakes,pecans,and honey. Mix to ensure honey and butter are combined.
  • When your chicken is done frying dry it on brown paper bags when ready for serving drizzle salted pecans honey mixture on chicken and enjoy.
