Ingredients

house seasoning

Directions

  1. 1
    Mix seasoning together and store in airtight container for up to 6 months.
  2. 2
    In medium bowl, beat eggs with water. Add enough hot sauce so mixture is bright orange.
  3. 3
    In another bowl, combine flour and pepper. Season chicken with house seasoning. You can let the chicken sit in hot sauce for up to 1 hour. It will not make the chicken spicy.
  4. 4

    I had to make this after I came back from Savannah and eating at Paula Dean's restaurant. OH SO GOOD!!! This recipe makes it taste just like the chicken at the restaurant. Very good.

    This is the best DAMN chicken that I have ever made. I used Trappey's hot sauce for the marinade. Hub is begging for more! Kudos to you and Paula Deen!
