This is a food blog of my husbands creations in the kitchen. Though he works with wood by trade, he definitely has honed some rather wonderful skills in the kitchen. I have tried to convince him to start a food blog, but he refuses. So here I go, sharing his exploits. Please feel free to leave any comments or ask any questions, I'd love to share the feed back with him.- charissa

Kentucky Style Fried Chicken


Kentucky Style Fried Chicken



1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
2 to 3 eggs, beaten
3 to 4 tablespoons oil for frying

Coating Mixture:
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons paprika
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 to 1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon tarragon
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon onion salt
1/2 teaspoon celery salt

Mix together all the coating ingredients and place in a clean plastic bag. Dip each piece into beaten egg, then into the flour mixture in the bag. Coat the chicken completely with the flour mixture.

Place the oil in a skillet and heat. Brown the chicken in oil slowly (225ºF if you are using an electric skillet), uncovered. Cover the skillet and continue to fry at a very low heat until the chicken is fully cooked, approximately 1 hour.

Drain well on paper towels.
