I’m 62 years old and I’m not criticizing anyone. My grandma made the best fried chicken I’ve ever eaten. All she did was flour, salt and pepper a paper bag lard and cast iron skillet. I wish I could go back in time and be in her kitchen eating her chicken and everything else that she made. I would tell her again how much I loved her cooking, and how much I loved her. I miss you grandma Irene.

[@carmenmartinez3793]

Thats alright everyone has their own secrets My mother uses mayonaise, mustard, thyme, fresh rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper and last to the flour adds up garlic and onion powder OMG i prepared like hers but trastes different every perdón has their own seasoning and flavor differs don't know why. Blessing from Puerto Vallarta México 🍅🌶️🥒🥑🌽🍍🥗🦞🦐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@lynnries7729]

My mother too just used flour, salt and pepper. Lots of salt...shaking the round blue box generously over the chicken.

[@mamawfrancy]

I'm 72 & my mamaw fried chicken the same way... she fed her family or preachers her fried chicken & biscuits most every Sunday. I love & miss my angel Mamaw Zella.

[@ellenw391]

No see my mother always soak the chicken and milk 1st. To this day I swear that makes all the difference in the world.Ironically I used the identical seasonings Paula does, Or I should say my mother did because I make it the exact same way but I put them in the flour. Mine is the hot sauce in the eggs. (Edit, not sure what my dictation cut off, but I'd NEVER put hot sauce in...not a huge spice fan. I like flavor). .But as someone wisely said we all have our own way. I often with try something another way To see if I prefer it but personally I think my mother's fried chicken is perfect!And when I make it. It brings back such happy memories so this is 1 recipe as much as I adore Paula, that I won't be trying

[@ellenw391]

PS Sorry for the misspellings,Like FLOUR, but I'm using dictation and it has a mind of its own

When I was a little boy my Grandma always ate the back and the neck. I thought it was just because those were her favorite pieces. I didn't realize till I got older that she did that so the rest of us could have the good pieces. Even then she would always give one of us kids the "Pin cushion or Parson's nose."

[@ladysmith3578]

I’m just starting your video so I’m not sure how you do yours. I leave my chicken set out for about 30 minutes. Once I bread my chicken I sit it on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. I preheat my oven to 350, I line a sheet pan with foil and put another cooling rack on that pan with foil. I fry my chicken in batches. As I take one piece out I add another one to the frying pan and put the cooked ones in the oven to stay warm. By adding a piece as you take one out it keeps the oil at a more even temperature. And what you’ve fried is staying warm in the oven. I like just salt and pepper.

[@cleophusfowler]

I've lived in Alabama for 67 years and although Paula's chicken looks good and probably tastes good, it's "fried chicken" not "southern fried chicken". True southern fried chicken is not deep fried it's pan fried with about 1/4 inch of oil in a skillet. It should be lightly moistened and breaded and not battered. Flour, salt, pepper and if you want put in paprika for a pretty color. Then shake it around in a bag throw it in a large cast iron skillet with about a 1/4 inch or slightly more of pre heated oil and pan fry it. That's it, nothing else is needed. I don't use a thermometer in the oil so I don't know what the actual temp. is. I've done it so much like my grandmother used to do it that experience is what I go by. Paula is absolutely right about the chicken size. I like 2.5 lb. whole chickens. I refuse to buy a chicken over 3.0 lbs. I'm not going to fry hens. Hens are for baking not frying. I also won't buy a pre cut chicken because they don't cut them correctly for fried chicken. The store splits them in half then cuts the pieces from the halves. When you do it that way you have no whole back pieces and no pully bone. If you don't know what a pully bone piece is you're not southern enough. LOL! Great video and I may try this " fried chicken " sometime. It looks good!!

Paula can you give us a mini tour of your area surrounding your kitchen..I love your furniture and have some of it thank you for sharing your cooking recipes

[@jerrypark236]

Hello Teresa I see happiness all around you, can I please share from it ❤?

[@johnwright2911]

Wow, contaminating that entire kitchen.....lol. Mixes the chicken, grabs seasoning, touches the faucet. Cleanliness is Godliness.

[@Starswake]

Yikes. Yep, better not to wear the gloves and just prepare seasonings and everything else first.

[@MelodyCOlson]

Really? She has soap and water

[@lindahale9876]

I always sanitize everything after cooking with chicken even run the dishwasher with bleach.

[@sookie4195]

Honestly I’m not dead and I’m well into my 70s. My mama cooked just like that and so do I. If you think the restaurants are keeping it safe and sanitary you got another thing coming.

[@earnestinegreen3791]

I miss Paula Deen on Foodnet! The Foodnet lack good home cooking chefs! Those home cooking chefs cook with common kitchen items!!! Love you Paula!!!!

[@janicew6222]

My husband was raised by his grandparents and they dressed and sold fresh chickens, also sold fryers as 2-1/2 to 3 lbs, never larger. Now they make them 7-8 lbs, tough old birds too.

[@kathyflorcruz552]

Old birds sounds terrible especially when they're not free range.

Good morning Paula and the team. I must compliment you on how comfortable you are on camera. I have been a fan for a very long time and always looked forward to seeing you on whatever network you are on. Thank you for your Amazing dishes. Blessings

[@MsGoldnBrown]

She is not on that network... because she was mean and racist towards your people. Interesting to see blacks still support those who hate them. She took what she learned from your people and tries to imitate it and you Praise her 🤔 Karma is a itch... stay on KZbin Paula. Your racist values are not acceptable main stream.

[@Zuxiasunicorn]

You have a lot of nerve coming on her channel to dump on her.

On her channel no less. YOU'RE the hater! If I was her, I would have blocked you as soon as you reared your nervy shite stirring head. Too bad it'll take thirty years from now for you to realize what a heel you were.

[@monicaayer7470]

What about the gravy?🤤 My family thinks that's a food group all by itself, just give them a spoon😋

[@David-sc2ir]

My mom's fried chicken is awesome. She uses a flour mix similar to Paula's but she doesn't deep fry it rather she fries it in a pan with a couple of inches of oil that is mixed with bacon fat. She'll brown one side well, then turn it over and brown the other side then cover the pan and let it cook for awhile until the chicken is done. Then at the end she'll turn the heat up high and bring that grease to a rapid fry and that crisps off the chicken at the end... drain on paper towel and then serve to hungry Christians at Sunday supper.... along with mashed potatoes, chicken gravy, green beans from the garden, sliced fresh garden tomatoes and cucumbers, and ears of corn drippin' with butter. Dessert will be a fresh baked lemon meringue pie piled high with meringue and ever-so-slightly browned off.... all served with big icy glasses of tea with a big ole chunka lemon so sweet you'll be energized for days :)

[@havenlee9759]

My husband is from Kansas and I’m from New York. That being said I’ve never made fried chicken before I made it while watching your video and my husband loved it! Thank you, Paula!

[@joshuabutler4444]

I just wanted to say this is the best chicken I have ever ate, I followed the recipe to a T. But I do not understand my wife and I went to Pigeon Forge Tennessee so excited to eat at Paula Dean’s restaurant, the service was five star, everything was five star except the chicken that was made was not done the way she shows here. So my wife and I was wondering which restaurant fries the chicken like this? Again I’m not saying the chicken was bad but it just didn’t have the house seasonings like in this recipe. I am from Kentucky and we got stocked up on the hot sauce, house seasoning, and there we gooey bars. I am the chef in my household and my nine-year-old daughter loves watching Paula Deen on KZbin, and we have fun with all her recipes. Thank you for helping me make great memories with my family.

[@lovelybutterfly32]

When I cook chicken I use about the same seasonings, but I add paprika and chili power, set the meat out and let it come down to close to room temp( cold meat seizes up and becomes tough when you heat it up). I use two cast iron skillets at the same time, one for the big pieces and one for the smaller ones, because they take diff cooking times and over crowding the skillet makes the grease bubble up and makes a mess.
