I had a craving for fried chicken one night, when the internet was down, and just threw this together, and my family loved it! They said it was better than takeout!

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups chicken broth
2 pounds bone-in chicken pieces, such as breasts, thighs, and drumsticks
2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 ½ teaspoons seasoned salt
1 ½ teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 cups oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Pour chicken broth into a large mixing bowl.
  • Wash chicken pieces and pat dry. Place chicken pieces into the broth and let soak while preparing flour mixture.
  • Mix flour, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, lemon-pepper seasoning, salt, basil, oregano, and cayenne pepper together in a large, shallow dish until well blended.
  • Heat 2 inches oil in a deep saucepan over medium heat.
  • Remove one piece of chicken at a time from the broth and dredge in the flour mixture until evenly coated. Lower a few pieces of coated chicken carefully into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and juices run clear, about 10 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining chicken.
