The chicken that KFC. doesn't want anybody to find out about! "Truly finger licking good"! My whole family loves this chicken, it's easy and very affordable!

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 4-6
• Yields: 8 pieces

Ingredients

• 8  chicken pieces, with skin
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1⁄4 teaspoon onion powder
• 1  pinch  ground red pepper
• 1  pinch allspice
• 2  cups flour
• 2  tablespoons canola oil

Directions

1. Put chicken pieces in a large bowl; add salt, black and red pepper, onion powder, and allspice. Toss chicken pieces in bowl until spices are distributed equally.
2. Put flour in a medium-size bowl and roll each chicken piece until coated evenly.
3. On medium heat in a large non-stick frying pan, bring canola oil up to temperature.
4. Add chicken pieces one at a time, skin side down. Lightly sprinkle each side with onion powder and black pepper. Reduce heat to low to medium-low and cover with lid. Turn chicken pieces every 10 minutes for 30- 40 minutes. Chicken is done when both sides are golden brown and slightly crispy.
5. Use a collander on a high rim plate to serve chicken on, allowing excess oil to drip free of the chicken as it cools to preserve crispiness.
