Cooking Instructions
Set up a sheet tray or roasting pan with a wire or roasting rack.
Remove chicken from packaging. Place pieces on the rack and leave on your countertop to temper for 1 hour. If some are frozen together, don’t sweat it.
You Gotta Turn Up the Heat. On your oven. To 350ºF. well, go on.
Any stuck pieces will come apart nice ‘n easy now. remove divider paper and Bake chicken for 1 hour. You look tired. Continue Hydrating Yourself. crank up a playlist. Feel our love.
Raise the Temp to 400ºF for another 10-20 minutes to crisp.
The Heat Is… Not Yet On. this dirty bird needs a bath in some Nashville Hot melted spices. Gently knead the pouch of dip sauce to break up any separated, dry rub clumps. Don’t you dare leave any deliciousness stuck to the insides! Now We need a smooth pour of all that flavor into a microwave-safe container. Whisk and heat for 30 seconds at a time until hot. Be careful!
Let’s get saucy. Give the dip one more good stir and pour all over the chicken (drizzle lightly for mild). Then sprinkle liberally with finishing spices - for Hot, Damn Hot and Shut the Cluck Up!!! only. That’s it! Almost.
It ain’t Nashville Hot Chicken without the fixins.
Take that sultry poultry and bed it down with your favorite white bread and some crispy kosher pickles.
Hattie B’s is in your house!
