Maw Carey's Fried Chicken I can't remember which one of my grand mothers taught me how to make fried chicken. I think it was Maw Carey. But this is the way she did it. Preparation Time: 40 minutes Makes 4 servings Ingredients: 1/2 cup corn meal 1 cup flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper 1 egg 1/4 cup milk 4 medium size boneless chicken breasts 3 tablespoons butter/margarine Directions: Melt the butter in a large deep dish skillet on medium heat. Put dry ingredients into a 1 gallon size zip lock bag Mix the egg and milk in measuring cup. Then pour onto a deep dished plate. Soak both sides of a chicken breast into milk mixture. Place directly into the zip lock bag and shake until fully covered. The butter should be slightly boiling by this time; if so, place chicken into skillet Cook for 5 minutes, then turn over. Cook for another 5 minutes. Continue this process until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve warm topped with chicken gravy Notes: Goes great with Spring's Fried Potatoes.
