Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 14 minutes
Makes: 4 Servings
Ingredients
3 eggs
1/3 cup water
About 1 cup hot red pepper sauce (suggested: Texas Pete)
2 cups self-rising flour
1 teaspoon pepper
House seasoning ( See Sauces & Marinades )
1 (1 to 2 1/2-pound) chicken, cut into pieces
Oil, for frying, preferably peanut oil
Directions
In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs with the water. Add enough hot sauce so the egg mixture is bright orange.
In another bowl, combine the flour and pepper. Season the chicken with the house seasoning.
Dip the seasoned chicken in the egg, and then coat well in the flour mixture. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a deep pot. Do not fill the pot more than 1/2 full with oil.
Fry the chicken in the shortening until brown and crisp. Dark meat takes longer than white meat. It should take dark meat about 13 to 14 minutes, white meat around 8 to 10 minutes.
Let the chicken drain on newspaper/paper towel for about 5 minutes, and then put it in the oven to keep warm until serving.
