Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Southern Fried Chicken.
Step 1
Begin by preparing a large shallow dish where you'll blend together flour, seasoned salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
Step 2
Stir these ingredients thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with buttermilk, barbecue sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and steak sauce until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 4
Now, take each piece of chicken and first immerse it in the milk mixture, allowing it to soak up the flavors.
Step 5
Next, dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour, ensuring a generous coating.
Step 6
Repeat this process, alternating between the milk mixture and the flour, at least twice to achieve a deliciously thick crust.
Step 7
Heat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches a sizzling 375ยฐF (190ยฐC).
Step 8
Carefully place the coated chicken pieces into the hot oil, frying them until they turn a beautiful golden brown on both sides, which should take about 10 minutes per side.
Step 9
Make sure the chicken is cooked through and juicy before serving, and enjoy the crispy, flavorful results of your efforts.
