Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 quart vegetable oil for frying
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 (2 to 3 pound) whole chickens, cut into pieces
• 5 tablespoons seasoned salt
• 3 tablespoons garlic powder
• 4 large eggs, beaten

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Mix flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a shallow plate or bowl. Place eggs in a separate shallow bowl.

Step 3

Roll or shake chicken pieces in the flour mixture and place on a platter. Then dip each chicken piece in the egg and roll again in the flour mixture.

Step 4

Fry coated chicken pieces in hot oil for about 5 minutes on each side. Cover skillet and cook on lower heat for about 10 minutes. Remove cover, turn up heat and fry for 5 minutes on each side to make chicken crispy. Chicken is done when it is no longer pink inside and its juices run clear.

Step 5

Drain fried chicken on paper towels and keep warm in an oven until ready to serve.
