Southern Sunday Chicken

Submitted by SweetDivaMJ

"Fried chicken on Sunday is a long standing tradition in the South and brings back fond memories of all the Sundays when I was growing up when we would go to Granny's house after church and she would always have....fried chicken! This is a delicious dish from my Best of Country Cooking Cookbook collection with good Southern flavor, but a little healthier than the meals I remember. I don't think I've ever actually made this on Sunday, but it's good whenever I do! I keep the original name because it's easy to remember and stands out among my MANY chicken recipes."

Thanks for great Sunday meal.

This is really tasty and was easy to put together. I made it with chicken tenders and a shallot rather than the onion. The only addition it needed was a little salt in the sauce; I added about 3/4 tsp in the chicken breading and used low sodium chicken broth but other than that it was perfect!
