REAL SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN



Real Southern Fried Chicken image

As a Yankee originally from Vermont, I didn't know one fried chicken from another. They all seemed pretty much the same to me. Tasting the Southern version opened my eyes! A side of hot biscuits served with butter and honey is practically mandatory. -Lily Julow, Lawrenceville, Georgia

CLASSIC SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN



Classic Southern Fried Chicken image

This is a basic Southern fried chicken recipe and the only one you will ever need. Chicken pieces are fried to perfection with a seasoned flour coating.

Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Entree     Dinner

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups milk
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons salt (plus additional for sprinkling)
2 teaspoons black pepper
4 pounds chicken (bone-in, skin-on pieces)
3 cups vegetable oil (or amount needed for frying)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to 200 F and place a rack in a large baking pan.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the milk and eggs. Whisk to blend well.
  • In a large heavy-duty resealable plastic food storage bag, combine the flour, 2 tablespoons salt, and pepper. Seal and shake to combine.
  • Dip the chicken pieces in the milk and egg mixture and let excess drip off into the bowl. Set already dipped pieces aside on a plate until you have three or four.
  • Add the dipped chicken pieces to the bag of seasoned flour.
  • Seal the bag and shake well to coat the chicken pieces thoroughly.
  • Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
  • Heat the oil in a deep, heavy skillet to 350 F. While it's heating up, set aside a large serving plate lined with paper towels.
  • Fry the chicken, a few pieces at a time, for about 10 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and thoroughly cooked. Be careful not to put too many chicken pieces in at once-even if they can comfortably fit-since this will dramatically drop the temperature of the oil, affecting the crispness of the final product. Note that chicken breasts will take a little less time than dark meat pieces.
  • With a slotted spoon, move the done chicken pieces onto the paper towel-lined platter to drain. Sprinkle immediately with salt.
  • Transfer the drained and seasoned chicken to the prepared pan with a rack. Keep warm in the preheated oven while frying subsequent batches. Depending on the size of your pan, this recipe will require about 3 to 4 batches.

If you wish, you can substitute 5 cups packaged shredded cabbage with carrot (cole slaw mix) for the cabbage and carrots, or use one package deli coleslaw for the slaw mixture. (I'm lazy.
