Viennese Fried Chicken Recipe

I'll have that leave browse through the book cooking for men, because it has too many recipes appealing and unhealthy, like this fried chicken to the Viennese, only appropriate style if you have planned not to eat for days, because it is fried in butter, but it makes you salivate just smell it, or even remember it.

It is a simple, as all of the book recipe, although the art of the Breading and batter sometimes resists hands less dexterous, the effort to achieve a crispy and tasty layer before biting the chicken deserve worth the effort and learning.

Ingredients for 2 persons

1/2 Kg of chicken (chicken wings, breasts, thighs, whichever you prefer), 2 eggs, flour, breadcrumbs, 100 gr of butter, salt and pepper.

How to make fried chicken Viennese style
The first thing is to clean the chicken and remove the feathers may have skin. Then we season and proceed to Breading. We have three dishes, one with flour, one with the beaten eggs and one with the bread crumbs.

The process for Breading is always: the first flour, then egg and finally bread. The key to make it a good Breading is well permeate the meat with egg, so that the breadcrumbs adhere well and does not fall off during frying.

Once we have the ready chicken, we melted the butter in a skillet over medium heat. If we see something is scarce, we can add a bit of some soft variety (hojiblanca or arbequina) olive oil, for example. When the oil is hot, add the chicken.

You must be careful not too up the heat and move the pieces frequently, to make meat well without burning the Breading. It must also take into account that the larger pieces, such as the thighs, will take longer to become. Finally, we put the fried chicken on a bit of paper towel to remove the excess oil.
