Banquet Crispy Fried Chicken (Copycat), My reverse-engineered recipe for Banquet’s classic Crispy Fried Chicken captures the flavor and crunch of the original — with a moist, fresh, tender homestyle quality Everyone in my family unanimously loves this recipe best out of ALL of my fried chicken recipes, if that tells you something! PLEASE NOTE: The Nutritional Information listing here is inaccurate — since only a fraction of flour and salt actually end up in the finished product So be aware — the suggested sodium, sugar, carbohydrate and calorie levels are ridiculously exaggerated!, What stores in Paragould Arkansas sells the eight piece banquet chicken?, Who sells banquet fried chicken from Paragould Arkansas? Walmart doesnt have it anymore
