Fried Chicken
2−3 pounds cut−up chicken pieces
1 Quart Water
3 tablespoons Salt (for soaking)
1 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon Accent (MSG)
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Soybean Oil (no substitutions) for frying
Allow chicken to soak in salted water for a half hour.
Mix egg and milk in a bowl. Mix flour, Accent, salt, and pepper
in another bowl. Preheat deep fryer to 350F, or place 3/4 inch
oil in a skillet set on medium.
Dry chicken with paper towels. Dredge in flour mixture, place in
milk/eggs, and then back to flour mixture. Do this one piece at
a time making sure that there is total coverage over entire
surface of chicken in each step.
KFC uses pressure cookers to fry chicken, which is risky to do
at home. If you are using a deep fryer, fry a few pieces at a
time for about 20 minutes, covered, turning occasionally.
Likewise, if pan frying, cook, covered, turning occasionally
for about 30 minutes. As always with chicken, check the middle
of a large piece to check for doneness.
Allow to drain on paper towels when cooking is completed.

Honey Barbecued Wings
Honey Barbecued Wings
20 Chicken Wings, tips removed
2 cups flour
2 eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 Bottle KC Masterpiece Original BBQ Sauce
1/4 cup honey
oil for deep frying
Wash the chicken wings, then remove the wing tips;
cut the other two pieces in half. Shake off the excess water.
Place the eggs and milk in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
Mix together the BBQ sauce and honey. Set aside.
Put the flour into a bag, then shake the wings in it, to
lightly coat. Roll the wings in the egg wash, then toss them
back into the bag. You want a fairly heavy coating of flour−−
so the BBQ sauce has something to hang onto.
Repeat 2−3 times.
Heat a large skillet or use your deep fryer. Heat oil until
it's very hot (around 350 degrees).
Fry the wings until they're golden brown. Remove and
drain on paper towels.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Dip each wing in the BBQ sauce and place on a greased
cookie sheet. Make sure the pieces don't touch each other.
Bake for 15−20 minutes, until they no longer look shiny.
