Well good to know, thanks tessagin! I still make fried chicken occasionally (like maybe once or twice a year), usually cook mine like you except add a envelope of hidden valley ranch, yummy!

Our newest favorite coating for pan or oven fried is instant mashed potatoes!! So easy and so good! Mix one egg with 2 tablespoons of milk and mix well. Use double the amount for a larger amount of meat. Dip in liquid, shake off then lay in seasoned mashed potatoes (they come that way usually) pat, turn over and pat in potatoes again. You could also put the potatoe flakes in a bag and shake with the meat.
This is especially delicious on fish.

Tessagin, we don't fry chicken anymore either. It must be over 25 years since I have fried chicken in the house. The smell of any fried food just drives me crazy, even bacon! When my DH fries bacon I open windows and doors even if it is cold outside. I like to eat fried food - just can't handle the smell, so if we want it, it has to come from somewhere else.

You do not have to brine chicken to fry it. I was frying chicken at age 10 but don't do it much anymore. We washed it, dried it and then dipped it in flour, dipped it in an egg mixture and then back into the flour mixture before dropping it in hot oil or Crisco. We seasoned the flour with salt and pepper and paprika. Yummy.

I just rinse and pat dry the chicken pieces and fry them with no coating. It tastes so good, I don't need anyhting else on it. Next time one of you fries chicken, take a piece and fry it just as it is. You will be amazed. My family loves it this way and no extra calories or carbs.

I don't pan fried chicken anymore. I make oven fried chicken. Wash chicken under running water. Salt and Pepper it. Put some Bisquik in a plastic bag. Add chicken and shake. Place on foil lined baking sheet sprayed with butter favored Pam or any other baking spray. Then spray the top of the chicken w/ Pam. Bake in 450 degree oven until done. I usually turn it about half way through cooking. Less grease when oven fried.

Same here! I bought steaks one time at Walmart and the texture was so strange, along with the taste, I had to throw them out. Sam's has a butcher cutting the meat and they don't "add" anything to it.
