Put the flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a brown paper bag. One by one, coat the chicken parts with mixture.
In a large skillet, fry the chicken in 1 inch of hot oil until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and drain the oil.
Put the chicken back into the pan and cover the pieces with cooking sherry. Cover the pan and reduce to simmer. Let simmer for 20 minutes. Serve.
so , what else can or should or even do i have to use instead of sherry?

Wow! The sherry I would imagine defeats the purpose of fried chicken... in other words sogs out the crispy crust in the chicken.
As to a substitue... white wine... Sauvingnon Blanc, for example. Chardonnay may be too oaky for this application. Dry Vermouth would also work.
I guess I'm still shocked that the recipes has you frying the chicken (which sounds great) then steaming it in liquid.
Let us know how it turns out.

Cover the pieces in Sherry ????? Re-read recipe , that would be a lot of sherry. Madiera would make a good substitute.Check COVER pieces. Also the nice crisp crust you just made would be a gluey mess.

Pooh! No fried chicken needs sherry... or anything else for that matter. When your chicken is golden brown, just place it on a platter lined with paper towels. It's ready to eat!

You can use just about any liquid you like. Like wine, broth, orange juice, apple juice. Whatever you like.
