Fried Chicken ( Southern Style )


There is nothing better then a platter of southern fried chicken..
Southern Fried Chicken
1 fryer, cut into pieces
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups all purpose flour
salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying
Cut your fryer into pieces as follows:
2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 wings, 2 breast, upper back (saddle )
lower back cut into 2 pieces..
Pour the buttermilk in a bowl that the pices of chicken fit in..
Put Flour in a bowl and add salt and pepper to taste, mix well..
Dry chicken off with paper towels, then put one piece at a time
in the buttermilk, hold it up and let alittle drip off. Now dredge in
flour.. lay out on a cookie sheet ( pieces not touching...
Let set for 20 minutes..

Turn burner on medium high..
Heat oil in a skillet about 1/2 way up.. I use a iron skillet.
Put  the breast, legs, thighs and wings in first.. let it get golden before turning..
Turn and brown on other side.. it takes about 20 minute or so, to get done.
Then add the reat and cook as before...
