    So far my favorite Question of the Day. Thanks

    To make it stick use Egg or a salad dressing that you love

    The batter’s base is breadcrumbs, but the spices are what ever you want too.

    I add red pepper, italian seasoning, and chili powder

    To make it not stick to the pan, you put some cooking oil in the bottom of the pan. Use what ever type you want. Canolla is better, Olive oil is best

    Mix flour, salt pepper, paprikain a bigbowl. Cut chicken into serving pieces. Wash chicken well and put in strainer. While it is still wet, drop a few pieces into the flour and coat it well with the dry mixture. Put into hot oil (electric fry pan set on 350 degrees works well.)and cook until brown and crispy, turning once

    The chicken is dredged in seasoned flour, then dipped in egg wash, then dipped in flour again. A nugget of info I got from a cooking class is, to leave the chicken in the flour until ready to cook. The reason being, is the moisture doesn’t seep through the coat of flour. Good luck to you.
    P.S. I like your username:)

    First, beat an egg and about 1/4 c. milk together in a bowl. Mix flour, salt, pepper, seasoning salt (any kind of spices) together in a separate bowl or large baggie. Rinse the chicken in cool water. put the chicken in the milk/egg mixture until it is covered. Then roll it in the flour seasoning mixture. Before you do any of this put about 1/2 inch of oil in a pan, preferably an electric skillet and let it get hot. If you are using an electric skillet turn the heat up to 350 degrees. Wait for the oil to be HOT before you put the coated chicken in. Once hot, put the chicken in pan and fry it. Turning it on all sides occasionally to cook evenly.

    Bowl #1 flour seasoned with salt and pepper
    Bowl #2 2 eggs beaten well
    Bowl #3 very finely crushed ritz crackers or cornflakes seasoned with some garlic powder season salt ground sage, and some black pepper, maybe a pinch of cayene.
    dip chicken in bowl #1, then #2, then#3 then deep fry , the best way to get a good crispy crust on the chicken that does not fall off until you bite it. Pan fried chicken can be dipped in bowl #1, then bowl #2 and in bowl #1 again and fried in at least 1/2 inch of oil.

    Sandra Lee from semi-homemade on the food network makes an awesome chicken-fried-steak, and the batter she uses on that is amazing on chicken too. It’s:
    2 packages ranch salad dressing mix
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    Ground black pepper
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    2 cups buttermilk
    Oil, for frying
    You mix the buttermilk, egg and one packet of dressing in a deep bowl. Then you mix the other packet of dressing, pepper and flower in a shallow dish. You dip the chicken in the liquid, then flour mix, then liquid and end with the flour mix. Then you fry.
    It makes a HUGE mess on your fingers, but it’s worth it :) You’ll love the taste of the ranch, and it makes it wicked crispy. Just make sure your oil is hot before you fry it.

    Don’t put ANYTHING on the chicken. Dip the chicken in a little bit of egg and let the extra drip off. Then stick it in your DRY batter, I like a good old mix of flour or Bisquick seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

    Down here in Texas, My mom would soak the chicken pieces in cold buttermilk for about 4 to 6 hrs. this tenderizes the chicken. When ready to fry, she would put 2 cups seasoned flour in a brown paper bag and shake a few pieces at a time and fry it in a large cast iron skillet in about 2 to 3 inches of shorting 350 deg. She would remove the small pieces first because they cook the quickest, then add the larger pieces. Cook about 20 mins. or until golden brown. This is cut-up chicken pieces with skin on and bone-in. The skin makes the chicken extra crispy. My Mom has been gone for 10 years now but everybody used to rave about her fried chicken. I hope this helps.

    you can just wet the chicken with water then roll it in the flour

    but using an egg with some adobo or all spice beat well then use some flour and roll it in the flour then fry untill its golden brown and done inside
