Creole Fried Chicken
Ingredients
- 8 pieces chicken (a mix of drumsticks and thighs)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for spiciness)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, Creole seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
- Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels.
- Dredge the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour mixture, coating them evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
- Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place the chicken pieces in the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the chicken in batches if needed.
- Fry the chicken for about 12-15 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the chicken from the oil and place it on a wire rack or paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the Creole Fried Chicken hot with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or cornbread.
