If a pro chef gives away his literally award winning recipe, that’s how you know he’s confident in his product. He knows you’re not getting close to what he can do haha
He knows you're not going to go out and buy a big box of MSG.....bro ths is not even a Recipe...its MSG...lol You can add MSG to a boot and it will taste good...
Not true. It's more of a scaling/ commercial topic. It's his brand, he has a spot in NYC, and has the name behind it so this video is for home cooks, nothing crazy
@@EssV_ pretty much. A recipe is a process. We saw his recipe and his process. Nothing changes unless he kept some parts a secret so any cook should be able to replicate the process
@@InzideAi An invalidating white guy, how quaint. Not only did you show an ignorance towards the use of MSG as a chef, but you've also managed to be culturally insensitive towards Asian-American culture & food. If anything, the chef would be confident in releasing his recipe because they understand that it's complicated enough that there's a cost vs reward situation (why go through all this work for one meal, when I can just doordash it?). Not only that, but if somebody were to replicate his recipe, step by step, and try and make a profit, they become liable.
@@InzideAi go try it lol, add MSG to everything u eat and see what tastes good with it and what doesn't. thats like saying "Its a big box of SALT" you can add salt to a boot and it'll taste good.
It happens often. You see your family own a restaurant, you gain a bunch of enthusiasm for cooking and want to enhance your skills. You venture out into the world working in kitchens making your way from the bottom to the top and then your family's restaurant is struggling so you go back to help them.
Don't buy one, it's very dangerous, even for borosilicate glass. If it breaks while you are frying then you have a huge problem, especially if it breaks over an open flame.
Totally on the menu this week. Love that this guy is just giving away his recipe. Hope the restaurant goes massive. We've seen Michelin stars for dumpling houses, why not fried chicken?
There are some interesting steps there. Seems like an improved Nashville chicken. I always just did flavored buttermilk never thought about making a paste out of it. While I add szechuan peppercorns to my Nashville chicken spices, I've never heard of smoke power or vinegar powder. And the duck fat was a nice touch, I use butter for a similar idea as while i like Nashville chicken something always kind of feels weird to use the fry oil, as i don't really like the taste of peanut oil, but i do like butters taste and it works with buffalo wings but who doesn't like the taste of duck fat. Seriously cool idea, need to try and incorporate them.
Since I started making my chicken with buttermilk marinade, I've never changed the way of preparation, it's my favourite method! It's a real game changer!
Never tried it ever…watched enough of recipe that calls for it. Maybe I might try this finally that looks yummy and I have not eaten chicken for years…
@@tonykuriger573 I stopped eating chicken bcos of farming methods…. I find the smell off putting.. do miss fried chicken sometimes…or Chinese honey soy sauce roast or broiled whole.
Finding all the ingredients was a bit challenging. Started at the regular grocery chain, then ended up at a decent sized Chinese Market. STILL did not have everything I needed. Had to turn to Amazon for about 6 things. Chicken tasted AMAZING both with and without the chili sauce. Did I make the ranch...no, opted to save time and used a cilantro lime crema sauce from Costco. Before you go down this path, just realize its a bit of an investment getting all the stuff, and it's quite a bit of work. But like most things that take time and effort, totally worth it in the end.
Ok, so... That looked delicious! Chef Eric Huang seems to be a genuine friendly person. I like that he walked us through the process. Excellent video. I want that chicken!
You can tell he did so much experimentation for this recipe. His training definitely shows, how he is able to break down each step and explain WHY he chose to do it his way. Damn, I know what Im making this week. Definitely increasing my fried chicken game thanks to him. Could use his techniques for so many different recipes. Thank you for this video!!!!
I love this series of you having different cooks and chefs over to your kitchen. Mike you are literally the reason I have finally started cooking outside of my comfort zone. I have become such a better cook. Thank you so much. I would like to see a vid on something like what spices go with different spices .. what works with others... Kinda like a choose your own recipe with love kinda thing. How to cook with out a recipe thing.
Hey great production value honestly the little animations the interview, showcase of the recipe. I sort of forgot I was watching a UA-cam channel this could have been like an episode on TV. great work!
Holy cow, this man is incredible! To just whip up that delicious-looking ranch outta nowhere after having produced that ridiculous chicken is the mark of a master.
I can't believe he was nice enough to give away his recipe. I've been on a fried chicken kick for a minute and can't wait to try this. Now I just need to find green garlic 🤔🤔
I was thinking the same about giving away the recipe, but then I saw the amount of work. Just making the spice mix alone - unless you are going to make several batches this is far too much work. This is a complex recipe for something you might only make a couple of times. I'd rather wait until I'm in NYC and simply order it from Eric.
@Ian I don't doubt his niceness, but let's just state that: this channel has 3,5 MLN subscribers which is POTENT! Can you imagine more effective advertising? But let's face the true, I couldn't believe that he's shared the recipe neither! Wishing you luck with the garlic 🍀😃
The fastest I've ever seen someone breakdown a chicken was Hung Hyunh on the speed challenge on Top Chef. If I remember correctly, he broken down 5 chickens in less than a minute. Tom Colicchio's mouth was open. He had never seen someone breakdown chicken so fast.
Fantastic video. Loved the all the details and seeing his technique. Mike should do a video purely on his garden: what he's growing, irrigation, and any other tips he'd like to share.
Not sure I'm able to make the entire recipe as shown, but there's so many good tips along the way that a home cook can easily incorporate into their own recipe. Adding the flour to the marinade, adding in corn and potato starch to the dredge, double frying, the chili paste.
If you're gonna try the Szechuan pepper corn for the first time, I'd recommend going easy on it. It's not spicy per se, but that numbing sensation can be pretty intense. And it also changes the way your tastebuds function for a good while after you've tasted it. Even water tastes kinda funny afterwards.
I can't believe you payed homage to Martin Yan! I learned so many techniques from him that I continue to use today. 30 seconds to quarter a chicken, I was doing it when I was 18. Of course I haven't quartered a chicken in years, being plant based now, but the memories! Thank you!
This is dope! Would love to see more of these and see how other chefs cook. So much nuance, skill, and experience. Great learning experience and fun to watch!
So smart! The starch mixed in with the AP flower, and then to take the inspiration from Nashville fried chicken like that and absolutely elevate it to where he does. Great recipe!
Thank you so much Eric for sharing this recipe! It means a lot when chefs share their recipes so that everyone can enjoy and not just the people able to visit your restaurant. Though that would be amazing and I definitely will have to visit soon!! Mike, great job and I’m excited to see what amazing things come out of this new space you’ve built to thrive in!!! One thing, is there a link for where we can purchase that glass pot? I’ve been in the market for one forever and I don’t trust the ones I see online, lol. Thank you!!
what? been watching since 2 bros, I always thought you worked in professional kitchens all your life. no formal school, just street school. totally valid, many excellent chefs are kitchen taught, not classroom taught (even if the classroom is a giant kitchen)
@@amnesia998 I actually subscribe to the channel, which is why I was so disappointed with this episode. I hope it's a blip and not a trend that others seem to be following.
i love his tone of voice so much.... funny enough from the time i head it i was like wait a min i know that voice cuz i saw him on another show b4... i so dig him
One of the things I love about these cooking videos is that I can take stuff where the restaurant version would be way too hot for me and make a home version I can enjoy.
First off, this is ALWAYS a lot of work for just a few pieces of chicken. The real nice option is to do up a few cut up fryers(min of 5) and do your initial par fry. it can be frozen and used at another time. Do the final fry and sauce additive to the few pieces you pull for a dinner or party. This works well for ANY paste style recipe. We do about 250 pounds per day in our rest. and pull as needed per order and do a quick fry and baste. Home cooks can prep for future dinners or party plansby just doing some management and thinking a little ahead. Makes for some fantastic dinner, snack or party pieces.
My mouth is watering seeing them eat. And I'm Vegetarian, LOL!!!!! Thank you Chef Huang for sharing your recipe!!! I'm off to try to make a vegan version.
You know what amazing about this. They make the chicken, eat two portions, then go make a ranch dressing. Just two portions.... the self control. respects.
Wow! What an amazing guy! Master chef and shares his recipe! So cool! He seems so very personable, too. Definitely not like some other "famous" chefs I won't mention. Lol Great abundance to you, dear Chef!
This guy knows his craft. I lived in Beijing for a few years and would keenly observe how they cooked everything, it was phenomenal. The crisp-ofication with the sweet spicy sauces absorbing into that beautiful crisping. It’s perfection. Learned a lot from Chinese chefery:). They are truly Masters at everything they do.
What a helpful comment...just don't eat it everyday. It's a treat. What's life without treats? Not everything has to be healthy, and if you don't like it? Move on...
Love this chicken - looks ace. Really loving the new studio and garden too! Would be great to see more of this series with guest chefs, and the interview! Fantastic, keep it up dude!
Wow! I love this Peking Sichuan approach to fried chicken. Also the fresh garden herbs!!!! Super inspirational to say the least. I’m going to try this recipe for sure. Thank the chefs and crew for sharing such an amazing approach.
You are one lucky guy. To have this man come cook for you. I have been Salivating watching you too eat! I used to live in Brooklyn, know exactly where it is. I may come for a Chicken dinner one Sat?? I now live in Toronto, not far at all...lol ❤
It's so good to hear Nineties famous TV Chef Martin Yan's name from the show 'Yan Can Cook'. I was in primary school and I used to watch the show with my mom. Yan used to arrive in a limo at the beginning of the show and in front of live audience showed his chopping skills with a cleaver..chopped and smashed aromatics on a board. it's a beautiful memory from my childhood. now that I think of it, it was the first cooking show I watched in my life, which eventually has become one of my favourite things to watch for entertainment. Yan Can Cook....Yesss! He would have killed UA-cam if got the chance! Also, after watching hundreds of chicken fried videos, this felt new to me still.... amazing recipe! Cheers!
Wow his knife is top tier. He got through cutting up half the chicken before I even realized he was going through the bones like they're nothing! Awesome video, thank you!
i am 24 years old been on youtube since 2008 and over all these years the single channel that ive continuously watched the longest is this one i think lol i think in another 10 years it will still be as well!
This looks incredible. So creative. The chili sauce is like a Chinese Michelin-starred Buffalo sauce. I'm sure that description doesn't do it justice. Also Eric seems like the nicest guy.
Of course I had to cut some corners. But I’d say I did more than half of what the recipe calls for. Also, my go to style is Chinese. I mainly use a wok for everything, all my basics are from really observing Cantonese, and Hunan chefs. All that equalled the most bomb chicken ever for me. Biggest thanks guys!!!! Keep up the great stuff!!
This looks delish! The last type of fried chicken I recreated at home was Howlin Ray's. This will definitely be the next one I do. I love the idea of the tingling sensation added by the Sichuan pepper.

This recipe looks amazing. Vinegar powder seems like it can be hard to get a hold of. Do you know how much and what should be substituted?
Well I would go for regular rice vinegar. Probably reduced. And still there will be lots of splitting but may be worth it
Looks like it can be ordered online for $10-15 for a smallish bag
Check amazon
Awesome video -- great looking fried chicken (esp with the green garlic ranch). THANKS for sharing this beauty!
why didn't they just buy more fryers? might have helped with the waitlist
Aren't commercial grade fryers pretty expensive? Or are the $200 ones just as effective?

now that I think of it, it was the first cooking show I watched in my life, which eventually has become one of my favourite things to watch for entertainment.
Yan Can Cook....Yesss! He would have killed UA-cam if got the chance!
Also, after watching hundreds of chicken fried videos, this felt new to me still.... amazing recipe!
Cheers!
My mouth is just watering fetching this video. It’s probably a bit technical for me to do regularly but my my, what a fantastic recipe. Very yummy.❤
What a long way Mike has come. Still remember the tight apartment kitchen days
Wow his knife is top tier. He got through cutting up half the chicken before I even realized he was going through the bones like they're nothing! Awesome video, thank you!
Thank you both so much for sharing this with us! I am super excited to try it. Your new kitchen looks great, and that clear frying pot is really cool.
I haven't eaten Fried Chicken in at least 13 years and my mouth is salivating at this I'm absolutely obsessed I want that Fried Chicken so bad
i am 24 years old been on youtube since 2008 and over all these years the single channel that ive continuously watched the longest is this one i think lol i think in another 10 years it will still be as well!
This looks incredible. So creative. The chili sauce is like a Chinese Michelin-starred Buffalo sauce. I'm sure that description doesn't do it justice. Also Eric seems like the nicest guy.
Wow, love the remodel Mike! Also, I'm super jealous of that garden you have! Thanks for all the great content.
Thise recipe is legit! I've made this without the pepercorn chili sauce and it was still amazing.
Of course I had to cut some corners. But I’d say I did more than half of what the recipe calls for. Also, my go to style is Chinese. I mainly use a wok for everything, all my basics are from really observing Cantonese, and Hunan chefs.
All that equalled the most bomb chicken ever for me.
Biggest thanks guys!!!!
Keep up the great stuff!!
Looks and sounds delicious! Also props to the video soundtrack 👍🏾
This looks delish! The last type of fried chicken I recreated at home was Howlin Ray's. This will definitely be the next one I do. I love the idea of the tingling sensation added by the Sichuan pepper.
Looks so good. Loved the spontaneous bonus ranch.
Wow I’ve never seen such delicious gnarly, crunchy moist looking fried chicken. This is next level stuff 🙌
I'll have a bucket or two to go thanks... looks delish... mouth watering now
love it when you have guests!
I love stories like this thx for sharing! 👌
This is an amazing technique for making chicken and that green garlic ranch dip sounds delish! I'd probably throw in some avocado with it as well!
I've got to try this soon! Thank you Chef Huang!
