Directions
Southern Fried Chicken, Thanks Paula Deen (FoodTV) for the best fried chicken I have ever made! It has a nice, savory flavor and a coating that has just the right amount of crispiness It was a good thing I had an extra cut-up chicken in the refrigerator because my family was begging for it again the next day Although it calls for what seems like a lot of hot pepper sauce, it isn’t any spicier than Jack-In-the Box’s Spicy Crispy Chicken–you can take it!! FYI I made this using 10 pounds of wings–enough of the hot sauce/egg mixture to cover, but you will need to double flour mixture if you want to do this much I’m not saying it tastes like KFC–only that you won’t be doing business with them anymore , Can you adapt this recipe to an air fryer?, I’ve made this 3 times It is THE best! Since I don’t have a deep fryer, use my deep spaghetti pot with the colander insert so the chicken stays elevated off the bottom of the pot QUESTION: Why Sprinkle chicken generously on both sides with seasoning blend and THEN put them in the bag of liquidy sauce mixture? The sauce washes away the seasoning you just applied Shouldn’t that be reversed?
