This deliciously juicy and crispy Louisiana fried chicken is my grandmother and great grandmother's family recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1 , 3 pound
  • 2 eggs , beaten
  • 1 , 12 fluid ounce
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 cups vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a medium size bowl mix together the eggs and milk. Add ALMOST all of the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder (reserve a dash of each for seasoning the chicken pieces). Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sprinkle a dash of the remaining salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder onto both sides of the chicken pieces.

  3. 3

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Put the flour in a plastic bag. One piece at a time, dip the chicken into the egg/milk mixture then add to the plastic bag. Shake the bag so that the flour is covering each piece of chicken.

  4. 4

    You can check to see if the oil is hot enough by sprinkling a little flour in the skillet. If it fries, it's hot enough! Place the chicken pieces in the skillet. After about 5 minutes, turn the chicken over. Let chicken fry for about 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and the juices run clear.

  5. 5

    Enjoy!
