Jennifer Lopez's Fried Chicken and Coleslaw Recipe #281840
I found this recipe a while ago in NOW magazine, it has a celeb chef section and apparently this is Jennifer Lopez's favourite recipe to make at home!!! This is actually a really great, easy recipe. I serve it with corn on the cob (with lots of butter), and mamas kitchen's kicked up baked sweet potatoes.
