List of Ingredients
1 whole frying chicken -- cut up and marinated
6 cups shortening for cooking -- (6 to 8)
1 egg -- beaten
1 cup milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
3/4 teaspoon MSG
1/8 teaspoon Paprika
1/8 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/8 teaspoon Baking Powder
Recipe
Trim any excess skin and fat from the chicken pieces. Preheat the
shortening in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees. Combine the beaten egg and
milk in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, combine the remaining
coating ingredients (flour, salt, pepper and MSG). When the chicken
has marinated, transfer each piece to paper towels so that excess
liquid can drain off. Working with one piece at a time, first dip in
egg and milk then coat the chicken with the dry flour mixture, then
the egg and milk mixture again, and then back into the flour. Be sure
that each piece is coated very generously. Stack the chicken on a
plate or cookie sheet until each piece has been coated. Drop the
chicken, one piece at a time into the hot shortening. Fry half of the
chicken at a time (4 pieces) for 12-15 minutes, or until it is golden
brown. You should be sure to stir the chicken around halfway through
the cooking time so that each piece cooks evenly. Remove the chicken
to a rack or towels to drain for about 5 minutes before eating.
