InstructionsStep 1: Dissolve 2 tbsp salt in about 2 cups of water in a large plastic container.Step 2: This is optional but if you want to remove the skin from the chicken you can. Then, place the chicken pieces in the container. If needed, you can extra water, so the chicken pieces are covered. Put the lid on and sit the chicken in the fridge for at least an hour.Step 3: Into a bowl, pour the milk. Add the egg and beat using a fork until smooth. Set aside.Step 4: Add the flour, seasonings, and soup base to a different bowl. Using a fork, mix well.Step 5: In the flour mixture, dredge the pieces of chicken, then coat them in the milk and egg mixture and roll in the flour mixture again.Step 6: Pour about an inch deep of oil in a large, deep iron skillet and heat to approximately 375 degrees. Once the oil reached the required temperature, add the chicken pieces to the skillet and fry for about 7 to 8 minutes on each side until the juices run clear. Make sure to do this in batches to not overcrowd the pan. To a serving platter, transfer the fried chicken. Alternately, you can fry the chicken pieces in a deep fryer set to 350 degrees. Fry a few pieces at a time for approximately 15 minutes until the juices run clear.
