Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup hot red pepper sauce
- 2 cups self-rising flour
- 2 1/2 pound chicken, cut into pieces
Directions
House Seasoning, recipe follows
- Oil, for frying, preferably peanut oil
Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a deep pot. Do not fill the pot more than 1/2 full with oil.
In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs. Add enough hot sauce so the egg mixture is bright orange (about 1 cup). Season the chicken with the House Seasoning. Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg, and then coat well in the flour. Place the chicken in the preheated oil and fry the chicken in the oil until brown and crisp. Dark meat takes longer than white meat. Approximate cooking time is 13 to 14 minutes for dark meat and 8 to 10 minutes for white meat.
House Seasoning:
- 1 cup salt
- 1/4 cup pepper
- 1/4 cup garlic powder
To make the House Seasoning, mix the ingredients together and store in an air-tight container for up to 6 months.

Delicious, crispy and moist. I prepared this exactly as described, used the peanut oil (never used it before and timed the chicken and it was perfect and not hot at all as expected. My family raved over it, my son-in-law could not believe how good it was. So easy and fast compared my normal recipe.
