CindyD's Somewhat Southern Fried Chicken
This is how I fry chicken. CindyD's somewhat Southern fried chicken recipe shows the ability of Americans in the 21st century to obtain food easily. I was raised by a woman whose grandparents survived the War Between the States and who had lived through both WWII and the Great Depression. She never used an egg to batter anything — they couldn't afford it then. She coated her chicken with only seasoned flour. The secret to really good fried chicken is to handle as little in the pan as possible and only turn it once.
