Easy Fried Chicken

This was super tasty and EASY! I made it with some mashed potatoes, biscuits and corn. YUM!

1/2 C. all-purpose flour

1 T. fresh parsley, chopped

1 T. fresh thyme, chopped

1 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. garlic powder

1/4 tsp. pepper

3 lbs. chicken

1 C. buttermilk

1/4 C. oil

1/4 C. butter-flavored shortening

* I skipped the shortening, used skinless chicken breasts, and used regualr milk instead of buttermilk to make it a little more healthy.

DIRECTIONS:

Combine flour, parsley, thyme, salt, garlic powder, and pepper in a shallow dish; set aside. Dip chicken in buttermilk; turn in flour mixture to coat and set aside. Heat oil and shortening over medium-high heat in a large skillet; add chicken, skin side down. Cook turning occasionally (turn down to medium), until golden brown and juices run clear. About 20 minutes.

*Makes 6-servings
