THE RECIPES
Ragin' Cajun Fried Chicken
1/2 cup flour1/2 teaspoon nutmeg1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
dash of salt chicken piecesoil for frying
DIRECTIONS
Rinse the chicken pieces and pat dry with paper
towels. Fill electric skillet with about 1 1/4 cups oil. Heat to high. Put chicken pieces in a plastic bag with all the spices and flour. Shake to coat. Cut the bag open, put the chicken in the hot oil. Cover. Cook for 15 - 17 minutes. Do NOT lift the cover during that time. Turn the chicken over and repeat on the other side. Drain on paper towels.
Fried Turkey
Seasoning:
1/3 cup Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning
1/2 cup poultry seasoning1 Tablespoon garlic powder
DIRECTIONS
Mix together the seasonings, and rub inside and
out on completely thawed turkey at least 12 hours before cooking. In a large
Fish cooker, deep fry in Peanut Oil, 4 minutes per pound, once the temperature
of the oil has reached 300 degrees. This makes your turkey a lot more moist than
the traditional roasting. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!
