Y’all come into my kitchen now, the place warmness meets the sizzle of relief meals completed right. Today I’m gonna share with you the recipe for some thing it truly is been a golden pride in our household for generations—Mama’s Fried Chicken. Each piece is like a heat hug on a plate, professional with recollections and that crispy, golden crust we all hanker for. It’s the dish I flip to when I choose to make Sunday supper greater one-of-a-kind or when I see one of the children had a lengthy day. This is greater than simply fried chicken; it is a handshake from the past, a culture that brings each person to the desk with a smile and prepared stories.

INGREDIENTS

•  Three lbs of fowl portions (breast, thighs, drumsticks—whatever your brood prefers)
•  Two cups buttermilk
•  Two massive eggs
•  Two cups all-purpose flour
•  Two teaspoons garlic powder
•  1 teaspoon paprika
•  1 teaspoon onion powder
•  Salt and pepper to taste
•  Vegetable oil for frying

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Begin with marinating your hen portions in buttermilk for at least two hours (overnight is fine for that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness).
2. In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Take every piece of hen out of the buttermilk, let the extra drip off, then dip it first in the egg, then coat it generously in the flour mixture.
4. Fill a giant skillet or fryer with vegetable oil—about an inch deep—and warmness to 350°F. You’ll understand it is prepared when a little flour flicked into the oil sizzles except burning.
5. Carefully region your poultry in the warm oil, and do not overcrowd the pan. We do not desire any poultry portions feelin’ lonely now, however they want their house to cook dinner evenly.
6. Fry every piece till it is golden brown and cooked through, about 15 to 18 minutes, turning once. Always test that the inner temperature’s reached 165°F. Safety first, darlings!
7. Transfer the fried rooster to a wire rack over a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. This maintains ‘em crispy on all sides.
8. Let them relaxation a few minutes earlier than serving—That’s right, persistence is a virtue, and it will pay off with hen this good.

Enjoy.
