Fried Chicken

Fried Chicken the good ol' Food and Family way. Season well, fry until golden and crispy and I guarantee you will have a happy family.

1 fryer chicken cut up
Buttermilk or whole milk
Hot sauce, your favorite brand
2 cups self rising flour, I use White Lily
2 Tbsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp black pepper
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp heaping paprika
1/4 tsp ground cayene, or amount to taste
2 tsp poultry seasoning

Link for dressing is at the bottom of this post.

Place cut up chicken in a large bowl. Cover with milk and add hot sauce. Be generous. It will not make the chicken hot. It will give it an amazing flavor. Cover with plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour.
Combine remaining ingredients in another bowl. Add chicken pieces a couple at a time. Press flour into the chicken. Lay on a sheet pan and coat remaining pieces. Let sit on pan for 10 minutes or so until the flour starts to look wet. Add oil to frying pan. Put enough to come about half way up chicken, approximately 1 1/4" in pan. Let oil get hot, around 350 degrees. Add chicken, cover, and fry. This lets the chicken steam through and get completely done. When it starts browning on the first side, turn, cover and cook until browned on second side. Uncover, let chicken fry until crispy. Remove to a pan with a wire rack to allow excess oil to drip.

Enjoy!
