CDKitchen https://www.cdkitchen.com
Serves/Makes: 4 | Ready In: 1-2 hrs
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 teaspoons MSG
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or chili powder
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 cup milk (Use buttermilk for a crispier coating)
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 pounds frying chicken, cut up or use chicken pieces
shortening for frying
Directions:
Combine flour, seasoning salt, MSG, black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and poultry seasoning in plastic or paper bag. Shake chicken pieces in seasoned flour.
Combine milk and egg. Dip chicken pieces in milk mixture. Shake chicken pieces a second time in seasoned flour to coat thoroughly and evenly.
To pan fry: melt shortening in skillet to about 1/2 to 1 inch in depth; heat to 365 degrees F. Brown chicken on all sides.
Reduce heat to 275 degrees F and continue cooking until chicken is tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. Do not cover. Turn chicken several times during cooking.
Drain on paper towels on a cooking rack over a pan. This will keep the chicken from absorbing the oil while lying on the paper towel.
