Recipe Tanya's Louisiana Southern Fried Chicken (Chicken)

Required Ingredients:

• 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into 6 pieces
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons onion powder
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil for frying

Preparing/Cooking:

• In a medium size bowl mix together the eggs and milk.
• Add ALMOST all of the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder (reserve a dash of each for seasoning the chicken pieces).
• Set aside.
• Sprinkle a dash of the remaining salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder onto both sides of the chicken pieces.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat.
• Put the flour in a plastic bag.
• One piece at a time, dip the chicken into the egg/milk mixture then add to the plastic bag.
• Shake the bag so that the flour is covering each piece of chicken.
• You can check to see if the oil is hot enough by sprinkling a little flour in the skillet.
• If it fries, it's hot enough! Place the chicken pieces in the skillet.
• After about 5 minutes, turn the chicken over.
• Let chicken fry for about 15 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and the juices run clear.
• Enjoy!
