I could never get it right before and this is right on the money. I seasoned it a little differently but my main concerned was how to get it crispy and and flavorful. Now I know the secret. Thanks!

My kids liked it but I thought it was way too greasy and not flavorful enough.

Very good, needed a bit more seasonings (should have read the other reviews before I made it!) The shortening is what makes this recipe so good, I think, I've tried frying chicken in oil before and never liked the results. This is a definite keeper! Hubby says it's just like his grandma's fried chicken.

Great flavor and crust. I did marinate the chicken in buttermilk overnight and add seasoning salt, paprika and garlic powder to the flour. Don't forget to make gravy to go with it.

This is how we always fried chicken growing up in the South. The cooking method described in this recipe is spot on! A good, "seasoned" cast iron skillet is a MUST! It's the BEST heat conductor.We use seasoned salt instead of regular salt.We also use a little garlic powder and a pinch of MSG (Accent). Also, sprinkling a little bit of the seasonings on the raw chicken before flouring gives it more flavor. We never used a recipe or an exact amount of seasonings, we just seasoned to taste.

Wow. I have tried to make fried chicken many times different ways. On the stove, in a deep fryer, in an electric skillet. This was the best, simplest way to prepare it. Now, don't think it's supposed to look and taste like KFC. Deep fried and pan fried produce two very different types of chicken. This had a thin, crisp coating and was nice and juicy inside. I don't have a lid for my skillet so I just used aluminum foil. I do think the seasoning is a bit bland. I served this with creamy gravy I made from the drippings. I will use this method again. Anybody can do it and it didn't even make a mess! Really.

It looked beautiful, but the flavor was too mild. I will make this again and just add more seasonings. I loved the cooking method.

Couldn't be any easier to make this recipe. I used a teflon frying pan and shortening and had no sticking issues. I think the trick is to use shortening and NOT OIL. I also added a bit more salt and pepper.

Made this for dinner last night. It's very good, but like other recipes I've tried, not much flavor. I even added more spices to the flour mixture, which helped. Will add more next time. There will definitely be a next time, this was easy and the chicken was very moist.

This is a recipe that stands the test of time for my family too. We have also placed the chicken in the oven once it has been browned. The reason for this is the quanity we prepare at one time. We have a large extended family. The one huge difference is the reduction and then increase in heat. The chicken is moist, pleasing to the eye and easy to prepare and clean-up after. If you like a little extra flavor boost add a little paprika and garlic powder. Yum,Yum! Thank-you Marilyn for an awsome recipe.
