I am looking for a good hot chicken recipe or spice kit I can buy online. Let me know you’re recs. Seeking deep flavor and spice but not overpowering spicy

Thanks

  • A lot of places in Nashville will sell their seasoning online, I know 400 degrees and Hattie Bs both do

  • I haven't tried it myself (because I mostly can't be bothered to fry chicken at home) but I have some Slap Ya Mama Hot Blend seasoning that seems like it would be really good for hot chicken.

  • here's the recipe i use for nashville hot chicken...

    1. brine the chicken in buttermilk, a good splash of pickle juice and some dashes of hot sauce. rest 30 mins to 24hrs.
    2. in a bowl add 1/4 cup of the basic nashville seasoning from below and combine with 1 cup flour. take the chicken out of the brine and put it into the dredge mix. fry at 350-375 until cooked.

    BASIC NASHVILLE SEASONING
    cayenne - 1-2 tbsp (medium heat) 2-4 tbsp (hotter) (for crazy hot, get some reaper powder and add that to the cayenne)
    2 tsp garlic pwdr
    2 tsp onion pwdr
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp pepper

    -- mix the above together (this can be doubled or tripled and stored in a jar for later use)

    then take 2-3 tbsp of the above mix & add :

    2 tbsp of brown sugar. mix well.

    then take 1/2 cup of your hot frying oil, put it in a bowl and add your spice mix. mix it thoroughly and either toss your chicken in it, or brush it on. if you want, you can dust the finished chicken with more of the seasoning powder. (i think that's what dave's hot chicken does)
