Southern Fried Chicken

Southern Fried Chicken in a light batter, seasoned and fried golden brown and crispy.
Ingredients -
4 pounds Chicken Pieces
1 1/2 cups Milk
2 Large Eggs
2 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
2 tablespoons Salt
2 teaspoons Fresh Ground Pepper
3 cups Vegetable Oil
Salt

Preparation:
Rinse chicken; pat dry and then set aside.

Combine milk and eggs in a bowl; whisk to blend well.

In a large heavy-duty resealable plastic food storage bag, combine the flour, salt, and pepper.

Dip a chicken piece in the milk mixture; let excess drip off into bowl.

Put a few chicken pieces in the food storage bag and shake lightly to coat thoroughly. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining chicken pieces.

Heat oil to 350°. Fry chicken, a few pieces at a time, for about 10 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Chicken breasts will take a little less time than other pieces. Pierce with a fork to see if juices run clear to check for doneness. With a slotted spoon, move to paper towels to drain; sprinkle with salt.
