Ingredients

  • 1 2 1/2 to 3 pound frying chicken cut into pieces
  • 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/4 cup or more seasoning (chopped)
  • 1/2 Cup Flour
  • 1 Tablespoon cornmeal
  • 2 Teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

1

Wash and clean the chicken pieces and pat them dry on paper towel.

2

Heat the oil to 375 degrees in a heavy skillet (cast iron preferably)

3

With a sharp knife, score the chicken pieces and fill each slash with a bit of seasoning poling to ensure that it is well inside the chicken.

4

Mix the flour, cornmeal, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper in a paper bag.

5

Place the chicken pieces in the bag and shake until they are well coated.

6

Place the chicken pieces in the hot oil and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure that they are golden brown on all sides.

7

Remove the chicken from the oil and drain it on paper towels.
