Southern Fried Chicken

Can anyone out there educate an Irishman as to what is the best recipe for tasty Southern Fried Chicken?

I’m looking online but I’m getting bogged down and confused.

Thank you!

Try Northern Fried Chicken - they come in smaller portions...

Best, subjective.
Its all about the seasoning. Season the flour, dip in the wash, dip in seasoning again, fry. And fry do NOT air fry.

I tried this once and it was really really good. Super crunchy and spiced just right, for me.

Thank you man!😀

I use the air fryer and replace flour with 1 part potato starch and 2 parts cornmeal for a crunchier crust. If you want to fry but cut down on calories I would suggest a quick fry at a high temperature and then finishing in the oven until internal temperature is 72C.

Tom Kerridge does a great Southern- Style chicken with potato salad that is really tasty and low in calories
