Skillet Fried Chicken

How to make Skillet Fried Chicken Recipe - In the South, the first thought for a quick and easy dinner is to "fry up a chicken." This is how it is done.

Makes 6 servings.

Ingredients:
1 (2-1/2 to 3-pound) frying chicken, cut up
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil or shortening

Method:
Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels.

In a paper or plastic bag, combine flour, salt, paprika and pepper. Drop chicken pieces, 2 at a time, into bag.

Shake until each piece is thoroughly coated with flour.

In a large heavy skillet, heat oil or shortening. Add chicken. Cook over medium heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning pieces to brown evenly.

Reduce heat and cover. Cook 30 minutes. Uncover and cook 10 to 15 minutes longer. Chicken is done when juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
