List of Ingredients




6 C vegetable oil or olive oil
2/3 C all-purpose flour
1 T. salt
2 T. white pepper
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
2 tsp. paprika
3 eggs
1 frying chicken with skin, cut-up


Recipe



Heat oil over medium heat in a deep fryer or in a deep cast-iron skillet on the stove.
Combine the flour, salt, peppers, and paprika in a bowl.

In another bowl, break eggs and beat until well-blended.

Check temperature of oil by dropping a pinch of flour mixture in pan. If the oil bubbles rapidly around the flour, it will be the right temperature.

Dip each piece of chicken into eggs; then coat generously with the flour mixture. Drop each piece into the hot oil and fry for 15 to 25 minutes or until the chicken is a dark golden brown.

Drain chicken on paper towels and serve warm. Makes 8 pieces.

NOTE: You really need to use the white pepper to get the right taste to this chicken recipe.
