Best Recipe for Brown Diner Fried Chicken

Ingredients

  • 3 cups peanut oil for frying
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 pinch paprika, or to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 fryer chicken, cut into serving pieces

Instructions

  1. Heat peanut oil in a deep, heavy skillet over medium heat or a deep-fryer.
  2. Mix flour, onion powder, and paprika together in shallow bowl. Whisk milk and egg together in a separate shallow bowl.
  3. Dip chicken pieces in flour mixture until evenly coated, shaking off excess. Dip coated chicken in the milk mixture, allowing excess to drip back into bowl; roll again in the flour mixture until coated.
  4. Working in batches, place chicken in the hot oil and cover skillet; cook until chicken is browned and no longer pink and the center, about 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
