BEST-EVER FRIED CHICKEN
Crispy, juicy and perfectly seasoned, this really is the best fried chicken recipe, ever. Summer reunions and neighborly gatherings will never be the same. When I was growing up, my parents had a farm, and every year, Dad would hire teenage boys to help by haying time. They looked forward to coming because they knew they would be treated to some of Mom's deep fryer recipes, including this delicious fried chicken. -Lola Clifton, Vinton, Virginia

BEST EVER SPICY OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN - SOUTHERN
I love this chicken recipe--after messing around with oil fried chicken, I found this recipe and it's exactly what I was looking for, darn close to "real" fried chicken without the hassle of oil frying. There is marinating time, but otherwise super easy. Don't be intimidated by th amount of hot pepper sauce in the marinade, the chicken will pick up only some of the heat.

Steps:
- Beat egg with water in a small bowl.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium low heat. Add egg and let it lie flat until cooked. Remove from skillet and cut into shreds.
- Add onion to skillet. (The recipe called for 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to be added also, but I found that this made the dish too greasy.) Saute onion until tender.
- Add rice, soy sauce, pepper, and chicken. (Make sure the rice is COLD before adding it to the skillet! It gets messy if it's not cold -- ) Stir fry together for about 5 minutes then stir in egg.

Steps:
- 1. Mix all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl with clean-dry hands.
- 2. In a separate bowl, beat eggs. Then add the milk and beat together until smooth.
- 3. Individually coat both sides of a steak with the flour mixture (helps to give the egg something to stick to). Then dip it in the egg mixture (do not oversaturate... just briefly dunk the steak in the mixture).
- 4. Take the egg-soaked steak and toss it in the flour mixture. Repeat the process by dipping steak back into the egg mixture, then once again in the flour mixture. Set the steak on a plate and proceed with the remaining steaks, following the same process.
- 5. Heat oil on MEDIUM-HIGH (oil is ready when you can flick flour into it and it sizzles rapidly). Add steaks two or three at a time (dependent on steak and pan size). Turn once after 4 minutes. Allow to cook another 4 minutes or until juices run clear.
- 6. When the steak has completed cooking, remove from pan with tongs and place on paper towel-lined platter or plate. While remaining steaks fry, a warmer or an oven at about 170 degrees can be used to keep the steaks warm, without affecting crispiness.
- 7. Serve with gravy, corn, green beans, and crescent rolls... and you've got a fantastic Southern-style meal!
