This classic Southern fried chicken is the ultimate comfort food, delivering a satisfyingly crunchy coating and tender, juicy meat. This high-protein dish relies on a simple yet effective seasoning blend of paprika, thyme, and garlic to create a savoury crust that rivals any traditional soul food kitchen. By soaking the chicken in a mixture of evaporated milk and eggs, the coating adheres perfectly, ensuring a golden, non-greasy finish every time.

Ideal for a weekend family dinner or a picnic spread, this homemade fried chicken is best served alongside fresh coleslaw or buttery corn on the cob. Using a heavy-based pan or casserole dish helps maintain a steady temperature, allowing the larger cuts to cook through thoroughly without burning the exterior. It is a reliable, crowd-pleasing recipe that brings a taste of authentic Southern hospitality to your dining table.

How to make Southern Fried Chicken

Cut chicken in eight pieces. Season well with salt and pepper. Set aside. Mix eggs, milk, and water. Pour mixture over chicken. Let sit for 5 minutes.

In a heavy paper bag, mix flour, paprika, ground thyme, and granulated garlic. Place chicken in bag with flour mixture. Shake until chicken is well coated.

Heat oil in a Magnalite fryer — oil should reach 177°C. Place chicken in hot oil. Fry, turning as chicken browns. Heavy parts such as breast, thighs, and legs will take 15 to 20 minutes, wings about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain chicken on paper towels.
