make SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN

This is the same as regular Fried chicken except there are a few secrets to making it SOUTHERN FRIED.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • deep fryer or deep large frying pan.
  • Chicken
  • Flour
  • Milk
  • eggs
  • salt & pepper
  • a clove of garlic
  • 1 onion
  • onion powder
  • garlic powder
  1. Step 1

    Cut & clean the chicken , place it in a large bowl , shake in some salt , black epper , garic powder & onion powder & a few cups of milk , Mix it around good & let it soak in the ice box for a hour.

  2. Step 2

    THE FRYING OIL , Now here is where the real secret is , Take the onion & cut it into 4 large pieces & take the clove of garlic & using the flat edge of a large kitchen knife & smash the the garic clove.
    Start heating your oil & put the cut onion & garlic clove in the oil. & leave it in the oil while the chicken is cooking. It wioll get black burnt looking but thats OK.
    Heat the oil to aprox 425 degrees F.

  3. Step 3

    Take a few eggs & beet them well. add a few pinches of salt ,black pepper , cajun spice , onion powder & garlic powder to the egg mixture
    Take the chicken that has been soaking in the ice box & roll it is regular flour.
    The roll it in the egg mixture & then roll the chicken in the flour again.

  4. Step 4

    Carefully drop the chicken into the hot oil with the onion & garlic.
    Fry till the chicken is golden brown on both sides. this will take aprox 15 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    When it looks nice & golden brown , remove it from the oil & place on a wire rack to drain.
    Check a few piece but cutting it open to see if it is done , if it is still bloody or real pink in the middle close to the bone , just put it back into the oil & cook it some more.

  6. Step 6

    Right after it is taken out of the oil, I like to give it a light dusting of salt & some Cajun Spice , Not a lot , Just a little.
    Let it cool a bit & serve
