My thoughts:

Did you lot know that Maryland has its ain agency of fried chicken? No? Neither practise most people, including ones that alive here. It seems to bring all but died out together with it is a shame. Luckily it is slow to brand at home. The major differences betwixt Maryland fried chicken together with Southern agency fried chicken is that the chicken isn't heavily breaded, it is pan-fried (not deep fried) together with it is covered for business office of the cooking fourth dimension to almost steam the meat cooked.

This is real similar to the agency my Grandpop ever made chicken. I didn't realize until I was older together with did to a greater extent than nutrient history reading that it wasn't simply something he did, but an actual thing (much similar meat cakes) that other people made. He solely made it amongst thighs thus that is how I made it here. I gauge you lot could piece of job other pieces of chicken, but I mean value the thighs create upwards the best: crispy together with evenly, patch angular breasts together with bumpy legs are a chip to a greater extent than hard to accomplish good, brownish crispy peel via pan-frying. The "steaming" fourth dimension results inwards super moist chicken nether that crisp shell. So good! Better, perhaps, than what you lot tin accomplish frying Southern-style when it is to a greater extent than hard to say when the chicken is fully cooked resulting inwards either nether or over-cooked chicken.


Note: This is non hold upwards confused amongst to a greater extent than or less onetime recipes for "Chicken Maryland" which telephone outcry upwards for bananas. Bananas! Baltimore in i lawsuit was a major import topographic point for bananas thus I gauge it makes feel but it is an strange recipe most oft institute overseas.
