    This chicken was some of the best I've ever had... and it came from my kitchen! Move aside Popeye's and KFC, because I have no need for your inconsistent chicken.

    Instead of a whole chicken, I just bought a pack of legs (6 and put them all in at once, frying for the full 14 minutes recommended, in peanut oil. I used the house seasoning but I added a little "soul food seasoning blend" to it. Other than that, I followed the recipe to the letter and the chicken came out with this beautiful, crunchy, golden-brown crust. What I loved about it was that it wasn't overly greasy.

    The only drawback was that the Texas Pete hot sauce didn't really come through at all, to the point I basically felt like I wasted money on it. Should've followed my first mind and grabbed the Tabasco. However, this did not take away from the flavor of the chicken as all the other spices came through unscathed, to the point that I wonder why the hot sauce is even necessary.

    RECIPE SAVED!! Go Paula Dean!

    I will never want KFC again. It was the best chicken ever. Easy to make and hard to put down. I use a garlic peper salt that for the in house spice. I don't know what the 2 bad reviews were all about. They must have loaded it up with salt and spice. I found the recipe to be simple and the best chicken ever. From one Paula to another your the champ. My partner and I thank you.

    Great recipe! Right stormcrow2,(although a little aggressive the 2 people before you didn't understand that the House Seasoning recipe is the amount that you keep on hand and can use on so many things everyday, DO NOT PUT THE ENTIRE THING ON THE FRIED CHICKEN! We do all make mistakes though, I urge ntb2008 and bluevero1967 to try this again because it is so worth it! Paula rocks the chicken!

    The two people before me are idiots. You are supposed to use a pinch of the house seasoning to flavor the chicken, not dump the full cup and a half on it. This is a delicious recipe!

    I agree, my chicken tasted all like salt as well and I didn't use a full cup! I am very surprised how it can taste well when the salt was so dominant. The chicken was nicely cooked but we had to remove the crust to enjoy it!

    This is the most amazing chicken I have ever eaten. Tender, juicy and bursting with flavor!! I did soak my chicken in buttermilk for several hours, rinsed it off and dried it. Then I followed the recipe exactly. Thanks Paula, my family LOVED it and it didn't last long.

    Over the years I have tried several different fried chicken recipe. They are always to much work and never worth the effort. I tried Paula's recipe and I LOVE it! I started making it last year and I have made it 6 times since then. It is crispy, flavorful, the chicken come out juicy. My husban, kids and I are so happy we found a fried chicken recipe that is perfect. Just follow the recipe. Thanks Paula.
