Picnic Fried Chicken image

For our family, it's not a picnic unless there's fried chicken! Chicken, deviled eggs and potato salad are all musts for a picnic as far as my husband is concerned. This is a "Golden Oldie" recipe for me-I've used it any number of times. -Edna Hoffman, Hebron, Indiana

I substituted thighs for the breasts and it turned out great. The thighs were nice and juicy.
