Ingredients:

Southern Fried Chicken:

1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
2 eggs, whisked
3/4 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil, for frying
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Buttered Mashed Potatoes, recipe follows

Instructions:

Rub the chicken pieces on both sides with the poultry seasoning. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and the milk together. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, salt and pepper. Dip the chicken in the egg and milk mixture, and then dredge the chicken in the flour mixture.

Heat enough oil to generously cover the bottom of a large, deep pan over medium-high heat. Fry the battered chicken until all sides are golden brown and the meat is cooked through.

Serve with Buttered Mashed Potatoes…

Buttered Mashed Potatoes:

2 large white potatoes, peeled and cubed (recommended: Russets)
2 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper

In a large pot, add the potatoes and pour just enough water to fully cover the potatoes. Heat the water over high heat, until the water comes to a rolling boil. Boil the potatoes in water until they are tender and then drain. Place the potatoes back on the heat and stir until the steam dissipates. Add butter, salt and pepper to the pot and then mash together until they reach the desired consistency.
