Today’s recipe is for BusyDad who calls me evil for posting this stuff while he’s dieting but at the same time requests more and calls it food porn. So Jim, this one’s for you

Southern Fried Chicken
First on today’s list you must have the seasoning down. This is an all purpose seasoning mix that you make at home and can be used for any kind of meat. (or veggies)
* 1/4 C + 3 Tbsp Salt
* 1/4 C Garlic Powder
* 1 Tbsp Onion Powder
* 1 Tbsp Paprika
* 1/4 C coarsely ground Pepper
* 1 Tbsp White Pepper
* 3/4 tsp Cumin
* 1 tsp Cayenne
* dash of cinnamon
I mix the spices in an empty Spice Shaker and shake-ity shake shake until they are well blended. Always shake well before using to make sure all the spices are well blended.
For this sinfully tonguegasmically delectable Southern Fried Chicken you will need:
* 4 boneless skinless Chicken Breasts
* 3 C flour
* 2 eggs
* 3 C buttermilk
* 2 C milk
* 2 C vegetable oil
* Meat Seasoning
Marinate your chicken breasts in the buttermilk for at least one hour before cooking, this gives the chicken that wonderful moist juiciness.
Heat your oil in a large skillet over medium heat, to approximately 375 degrees. You want a drop of egg wash to sizzle when dripped into the oil.
Mix the 3 C flour and roughly 1/4 C of your seasoning and put on a plate or other dish. You can use less or more seasoning, it depends on your taste buds.
Briskly whisk together the eggs and the milk. Then take each piece of chicken out of the buttermilk mixture and dip it into the egg/milk wash. Then place it into the flour mixture and thoroughly coat each side. Set the chicken onto a plate and repeat process with each piece of chicken.
With tongs gently place each piece of chicken into your oil and cook about 3 to 4 minutes each side. The breading will turn a crispy golden brown color.
This would be absolutely perfect followed by or even paired with my Coffee Malt recipe that’s posted on Blissfully Domestic.
I also make the kids’ chicken tenders with this same recipe and they can’t get enough of them.
Kid’s Southern Style Chicken Strips
Our weekend in Gruene was wonderful and I have lots to report and darling pictures to post. We had no internet access so my reader was taunting me last night with 276 posts to catch up on. Thanks for sticking with me through my postless weekend. XOXO
That looks amazing. I have been looking for a good friend chicken recipe. This is a must try… thanks!
shouldn’t have read this first thing in the morning. now i’ll be craving for fried chicken all day…
looks so yummy and easy! i think i’ll go try this at home!
thanks!
Hi it’s Shaggy, Scooby said I could eat this for him…so send it OVAH’!
That looks really, really good. Glad your weekend was great and can’t wait to hear about it.
That looks divine! Yummy! 7 tbsp of salt? WOW! And, remind me to tell you why I don’t fry.
Jill: It is soo delicious! You’re welcome
Mah-Mee: Let me know what y’all think!
noble pig (aka Shaggy): On it’s way
Anglophile: ummmm. Waiting for you to tell my why you don’t fry.
Yes, it’s 7 TBSP of salt but that seasoning will last for a long time! You don’t use it all on this
OMG! You were in Gruene?? I was there in Gruene for a few hours too! Don’t worry, my reader is at 376.
BTW, the chicken looks awesome, I’ll definitely have to try it!
sounds delicious! I will have to try this soon. Chicken is usually a big hit with my family, but we’re getting tired of the same old stuff.
Gawd – I feel my arteries closing as I just look at the pictures. Love chicken fried steak- one of goads most perfect foods!
yummmmm.
I tried to make fried chicken once. From a cookbook. For my New England/Italian husband. He hated it and the note in my cookbook says “This was terrible and disgusting only because I tried to make it. Never make this again.”
But with YOUR tutelage, I may try again. Thanks!!!
Sweet Jesus I am hungry.
Thank you for thoroughly torturing me. I must be a glutton for punishment, Rachel-style – because, as you know, I am here for two weeks in a remote city in China with absolutely no hope of satiating my desire for some down-home fried chicken. Granted, Chinese food is amazing here, but damn. I wanna get my fingers greasy. Keep up the food porn/torture because this is the closest I’ll get to the real thing for a while.
How do I get the tongue print off my screen where I licked it?
Wow! You know if I lived near you, I’d be inviting myself for dinner every night. Well…at least a couple times a week.
Looks wonderful. My family would love this!
OMG Rachel I hate you. That looks sooooo good. All I need is that chicken with a bowl of country style gravy and I’d be in heaven.
Why? Why do you do this to us. It’s not fair.
Looks great, Rachel. You’ll have to try my BBQ lemon pepper chicken when you visit Melbourne!
Yum!
My kids love chicken strips.
I’ll definitely have to try out your recipe.
I’m drooling…seriously!
Must eat lunch pronto!
This sounds fantastic!!!! When can we come over? *smile*
We will have to add this to the menu for the week!
Thanks -
Camille
Come join in on the fun at my Contest Corner!
Okay – I broke down, and went to the store to get what I need for this yummy chicken. I plan on making it tenders for everyone!
Thanks again – I’ll let you know how it goes! I told hubby we were invited for dinner – but he said Texas was just too far *smile*!
Blessings -

Again, I cant believe I’m commenting on a cookery item but that looks Yummy.
Wonderful. Thanks for the “spice mix” recipe…I like doing things “from scratch”…Hmm….I bought chicken today…maybe tomorrow night for dinner…
Oh well, gotta go throw on some burgers and dogs and TRY to get the girls out of the pool!
Pax, EJT
*Wipes drool from face*…..
I.want.some…. Yummmmm
Oh man…can I come over for dinner? Looks good!
Um. What’s up with the “boneless, skinless breasts”????? If you’re trying to be healthy, let me clue you in. It’s fried. That’s no way to eat chicken. ‘Round here, we throw them parts out to the dogs so we can eat up the dark meat luciousness. I can’t imagine having fried chicken without a bone to hang on to… but the recipe looks outstanding, my friend.
It look’s to good to be through I am definitely going to try this
