Instructions

  1. 1 Fill a turkey fryer or large stockpot with enough oil to fry turkey, leaving room for oil to rise when turkey is added. Heat oil to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Layer a large platter with clean paper bags.
  2. 2 Pat turkey dry with paper towels. Rub seasoning inside cavity and outer surfaces. Make sure hole at the neck is open at least 2 inches so oil can flow freely into cavity.
  3. 3 Turn off heat source. Place onion into the drain basket followed by turkey, neck-end first. Slowly lower the basket into the fryer until turkey is completely submerged in oil. Turn on the heat source and cook, maintaining oil temperature at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until no longer pink at bone and juices run clear, about 45 minutes, or 3 1/2 minutes per pound.
  4. 4 Carefully remove the basket from the fryer and drain turkey. An instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh, near bone, should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), but no more than 180 degrees F (80 degrees C). Transfer turkey to the prepared platter to finish draining, 10 to 15 minutes.

  1. 1 Use a sharp knife to slice a criss-cross pattern (#) into the top of each chicken thigh. Place chicken, hatched-sides up, into a large glass or ceramic bowl.
  2. 2 Add yogurt, marmalade, pepper flakes, paprika, onion powder, salt, pepper, lemon juice, garlic, and ginger to the chicken. Mix with a spatula until all ingredients are well mixed and chicken is completely covered in the marinade. The paprika will give the marinade a light red color; don't be alarmed. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours.
  3. 3 Remove chicken from the marinade and let sit for 1 hour before frying.
  4. 4 When ready to fry, heat 1 inch oil in a large frying pan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  5. 5 Shake excess marinade off chicken; don't shake off too much though! Discard the remaining marinade. Add chicken to the hot oil with the hatched-sides down. Fry until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 4 to 5 minutes per side. A little black is good, it adds tons of flavor. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  6. 6 Remove from the oil and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
