In my never ending quest to find the perfect fried chicken recipe, I came across this easy recipe in Glamour magazine. It was good fried chicken, but my quest continues. This was not perfect fried chicken.
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
seasoned salt to taste
pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 whole chicken, cut up and skinned
3 cups oil (I used canola)
Combine flour, cornmeal and salt and pepper in a large ziploc bag or covered container; set aside.
In a large flat bowl, whisk eggs and milk together. Coat chicken with egg mixture; shake in flour mixture til chicken is well coated. Repeat with remaining chicken pieces.
Meanwhile, heat oil over medium high heat in a large frying pan, preferably cast iron.
Fry chicken about 15 minutes on first side; turn chicken. Cover pan and cook 10 minutes more. Remove cover and cook chicken 5 more minutes, or til chicken is cooked through.
Drain on paper towels or paper bags.
Serve hot or at room temperature.

The trick is in cooking a frozen ear. Do Not thaw the ear out. Put it in a steamer for 30 minutes. Delish. Oh, take the Saran Wrap off before steaming it. 8:)
Do you think I could microwave it and get the same results?
:)
The cake sounds great too!
I think I am going to fry up some potatoes, onions, mushrooms and add in some chicken...yummy!!
Your combo sounds really good!
It really is the best chicken, Al.
How come you've only made it the once?
Try it one more time! Just one!
