Simple and easy.

Southern-Fried Chicken

1 3 lb chicken, cut up
1/3 cup butter milk
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup lard

1. Combine flour, salt and pepper in a paper or plastic bag. Dip chicken in the buttermilk. Shake one or two pieces of chicken in bag to coat.

2. In a large deep cast iron frying pan, melt lard over medium-high heat to 375 degrees. I use the splatter test, put a little water on your fingers and flip it into the grease, when it splatters the heat is right. Add chicken pieces and cook turning frequently until brown and crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain on paler towels

1 small chicken, cut into pieces
salt and pepper
large bottle of Crisco liquid oil
flour (either plain or self rising)
Salt and pepper chicken pieces. Take gallon size zip lock bag and add flour. Add a few chicken pieces, close bag and shake well to coat. Remove chicken pieces to a paper plate. Add more flour if necessary to bag. Add more chicken and shake well. Continue until all pieces are coated well. Meantime, add oil to frying pan until about halfway up the side of pan. Heat until a few sprinkles of flour added to hot oil sizzles. Add a few chicken pieces but do not crowd. Cut heat down just a little. Fry for about 5 minutes on one side, then gently turn pieces to other side. Keep flipping back and forth until medium brown. The key is NOT to BURN the chicken. Take pieces of chicken out and drain on paper towel placed on a plate. May need to change the paper towel if necessary to absorb all the grease. Once all pieces are fried, change to a nice platter. Good, hot or cold. Good at church functions and picnics too!!

Or just get some bread crumes and put it on the chicken and fry it

grandma would keep it simple
soak chicken in buttermilk,1hour to 1 day
prepare flour and egg wash
egg wash =eggs,milk,salt,pepper[if you want you can sub garlic salt for salt]
flour=flour,salt, pepper
shake chicken
dredge in flour ,dip in egg wash,then back in flour,then in oil immediately.have oil preheated to 350f[crisco ,or peanut oil]
12 to 15 minutes should be good,they should be nice and brown.

ps if you have a pressure cooker that is how KFC does it,only takes 8 to 10 minutes tops,no need to submerge in oil ,either.
