Contest-Winning Sunday Fried Chicken Recipe image

The spicy coating for this chicken is one I've put together over the years. My recipe really got a workout when our four children (now married)were young and our family competed out on the rodeo circuit. Whenever the word spread I'd brought along fried chicken, the cowboys would crowd around! Today, my husband and I run an 800-acre cattle and quarter horse ranch.

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons ground mustard
2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons garlic salt
1 tablespoon celery salt
1 tablespoon pepper
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 broiler/fryer chicken (2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pounds), cut up
Oil for deep-fat frying

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except chicken and oil. Place about 1 cup flour mixture in a paper or plastic bag. Shake a few chicken pieces in the bag at a time, coating well. On medium-high, heat 1/2 in. of oil in a large skillet. Brown chicken on all sides; remove to a large shallow baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-60 minutes or until done. Recipe makes enough coating for three chickens. Store unused mixture in an airtight container.
  • Yield: 4-6 servings.
