Chicken | Healthiest Foods

The chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) is a type of domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl. It is one of the most common and widespread domestic animals, with a total population of more than 19 billion as of 2011. There are more chickens in the world than any other bird or domesticated fowl.Humans keep chickens primarily as a source of food (consuming both their meat and eggs) and, less commonly, as pets. Originally raised for cockfighting or for special ceremonies, chickens were not kept for food until the Hellenistic period (4th–2nd centuries BC),More info:wiki

#9     North Carolina Dipped Fried Chicken,More info:splendidtable

For this unusual sauced, or “dipped,” fried chicken, we started by brining chicken parts in a solution of salt, sugar, and water. We coated the chicken pieces in a seasoned flour mixture and let them sit in the refrigerator to ensure that the coating adhered. We then deep-fried them in 350-degree peanut oil until the coating was crispy. For the sauce, we combined Texas Pete Original Hot Sauce (a North Carolina specialty) with Worcestershire sauce, oil, molasses (to balance out the heat), and cider vinegar. We let the chicken cool for 10 minutes (to let steam escape) and then spooned the tangy-spicy sauce over top, which proved to be easier and less messy than dipping. The coating absorbed the lip-tingling sauce and still retained its crispy, craggy texture.

The chicken needs to brine for at least 1 hour before being coated in step 3. Do not brine the chicken longer than 4 hours or it will be too salty. Use a Dutch oven that holds 6 quarts or more. You’ll need one 12-ounce bottle of Texas Pete Original Hot Sauce for this recipe.

#3      Chicken Scarpariello with Sausage and Peppers,More info:bonappetit

Chicken Scarpariello is a classic Italian-American recipe with juicy chicken thighs, sweet Italian sausage, and a vinegary, sweet-sour pan sauce. For that sauce, we liked the flavor of the Peppadew, but other pickled peppers will work, too. Keep in mind that you may have to add a little more sugar or vinegar if you use another type of pepper—taste at the end and tweak it to your liking.

#1     Foolproof Roast Chicken,More info:splendidtable

This is the best method I know for making perfect roast chicken. Even novice cooks find it foolproof. By some mysterious chemistry (the discovery of Marcella Hazan) roasting a chicken with a lemon in its cavity guarantees exceptionally crisp skin, very moist flavorful flesh and abundant pan juices, with no added fat: in short everything one could ask of a roast chicken but which ordinarily achieved by slathering the bird with butter.

I roast the bird breast-side-down for the first 20 minutes so that the juices flow to the breast, and the breast, which takes less time to cook than the legs, is protected from intense oven heat.
