My Cajun Fried Chicken
From well_seasoned 15 years ago
Ingredients
- 10 chicken pieces with skin removed if desired. Skinless is my preference. shopping list
- Tony Chacherie's creole seasoning or any cajun seasoning blend. shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour shopping list
- 3/4 cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs shopping list
- oil for frying shopping list
How to make it
- Season the chicken heavily then refrigerate for at least one hour. *This is important for the seasoning to be absorbed throughout the chicken*
- Remove chicken from refrigerator after an hour and set aside.
- Mix the flour and breadcrumbs in a bowl.
- Scramble the eggs in another bowl.
- Put one inch of oil in a skillet and turn the heat to medium.
- While oil is heating dip each piece of chicken in the eggs, dripping off the excess then roll in the flour breadcrumb mixture.
- Place the coated chicken on a plate until you have a batch prepared.
- Carefully lower the chicken in the hot oil being careful not to crowd the pieces.
- Cook for 8 minutes, turn pieces over and cook for 8 more minutes or until chicken is floating and golden brown.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Coat and cook the remaining chicken. I always do this in two batches.
