CHESTER'S FRIED CHICKEN
Crispy, flaked and juicy fried chicken. I got this recipe from Chester who also attened a culinary class at CFJP. Chester recommends that if you have not had much experience frying chicken start with the drumsticks. When I made this I seasoned the chicken as directed, but for my family this was to salty, so next time I'll just season my flour. I did use 1 cup of flour and coated 6 chicken drumsticks. I used my deep fryer and fryed the chicken 15 minutes.

ROY ROGERS CRISPY FRIED CHICKEN - COPYCAT
Posted in response to a request and located in an online search. Roy Rogers® was a huge fast-food chain in the eastern U.S. The chain was unique because not only did they offer-up burgers, but fried chicken as well. People really enjoyed their chicken. In fact, to this day there are arguments over who had better chicken---Roy Rogers® or KFC®. Hardees® bought the chain, and eventually phased it out---much like they did with Burger-Chef®. This is a "per-serving" recipe. Multiply by number of servings. (One serving= 3 drumsticks). Prep time is estimated.

Steps:
- Pre-heat your deep fryer to 375°. In a mixing bowl, blend egg whites and milk with a wire whisk -- set aside.(Make sure they're mixed thoroughly--somewhat "frothy".).
- Measure dry ingredients into a gallon sized Zip Lock type bag, close, and shake well to mix.
- Generously coat the drumsticks with the milk-egg mixture, and place them in the bag of seasonings. (I recommend doing 3 at a time) Then shake the bag until well coated.
- Drop into deep fryer and allow to cook 15 minutes. (Fry no more than 9 at a time -- and if cooking 9, go 18-22 min, eyeball 'em) When the drumsticks are done, they will be a dark golden brown.
- Remove crispy chicken and drain on a paper towel lined plate. CAUTION! They will be very HOT, so allow them to cool 5-8 minutes before serving.
- Note: You can remove the skin for "skinless crispy chicken" if you prefer.
- Note 2: Try this coating recipe and cooking method with CHICKEN TENDERS. Just cut up boneless breasts into bite sized pieces, coat with milk-egg/seasoning and deep fry.
- Note 3: You can also use this coating and cooking method for wings, thighs, breasts etc. Just be sure to coat well and adjust cooking time for the different sizes of chicken.

Tips:
- Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade helps to infuse the chicken with flavor and keeps it moist. Chester's uses a simple marinade made with buttermilk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Double-coat the chicken in flour: This helps to create a crispy, golden-brown crust. First, coat the chicken in a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper. Then, dip the chicken in buttermilk and coat it in the flour mixture again.
- Fry the chicken in hot oil: The oil should be between 350°F and 375°F. If the oil is too hot, the chicken will cook too quickly and the outside will be overcooked while the inside is still raw. If the oil is too cool, the chicken will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
- Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy: This usually takes about 10-12 minutes per side. You can also use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Chester's fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make Chester's fried chicken at home that is just as good as the restaurant version.
