|
| ROD’S SOUTHERN FRIED CHICKEN |
|
| Ingredients |
|
 |
1 Whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces |
|
|
3 Eggs |
|
|
1/3 Cup water |
|
|
2 Cups all-purpose flour |
|
|
1 Teaspoon black pepper |
|
|
1 Teaspoon ROD’S RUB SWEET MESQUITE (or your favorite Rod’s Rub flavor) |
|
|
Crisco shortening or vegetable oil for frying |
|
|
Serves 4 |
|
|
| Wash the chicken thoroughly and remove the excess fat. Beat eggs with water. Mix ROD’S RUB SWEET MESQUITE, flour and black pepper in a dish large enough to dip each piece of chicken. Coat both sides of the chicken with the dry mixture. Dip seasoned chicken in egg; then coat well in flour mixture again. In a large, deep heavy skillet, on medium-high heat (350 degrees), add enough shortening/oil to cover the chicken. |
| Place the chicken in an uncovered skillet and cook until golden brown. Remove each piece of chicken from the oil, drain on paper towels, and dust chicken with ROD’S RUB SWEET MESQUITE. Serve immediately. Dark meat requires longer cooking time than white meat (about 13 to 14 minutes for dark meat, and 8 to 10 minutes for white meat). |
