I don't know who Betty is, but this is the best fried chicken recipe I have ever used. I've been using this recipe since 1990 when I found it in The Dallas Morning News food section.
Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1 (3 lb) fryer, cut up
vegetable oil (for frying)
Directions:
1. Combine first 6 ingredients in plastic bag.
2. Shake it to mix and set aside.
3. In a bowl, combine egg and milk; mix well.
4. Skin chicken, if desired.
5. Put 2 or 3 pieces of chicken in bag with flour.
6. Shake well.
7. Dip chicken in egg mixture, return to bag and shake again.
8. Repeat with remaining chicken.
9. Heat 1 inch of oil in a large skillet.
10. Add chicken and fry 15 minutes or until golden brown, turning to brown both sides.
11. Drain chicken on paper towels.
