1/2 c. milk
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 c. all purpose flour
2 tsp. garlic salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. poultry seasoning
2 1/2 - 3 lbs. cut up chicken pieces

1. Combine milk and egg in medium bowl; set aside.

To skillet fry, heat 1/2" to 1" Crisco to 365 degrees in electric skillet or in large heavy skillet on medium high heat. Brown chicken on all sides. Reduce heat to 275 degrees or medium low heat. Continue cooking until chicken is tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. Do not cover. Turn chicken several times during cooking. Drain on paper towels.

For extra spicy chicken, increase black pepper to 2 teaspoons and poultry seasoning to 1/2 teaspoon.
