Yield: 4 servings

Servings: persons

4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon paprika
2 teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
4 tablespoons lemon pepper
1 cup shortening
1 tablespoon vinegar

1
After washing chicken, pat dry with a paper towel and put in a ziplock bag.
2
Pour buttermilk (I use KC_Cooker's Buttermilk Recipe #124413) into bag and refrigerate up to 24 hours.
3
For coating mixture, add flour, baking powder, paprika, salt, pepper and only 3 tablespooons of the lemon pepper to ziplock bag.
4
Shake ziplock bag to thoroughly coat each piece of chicken, 2 pieces at at time may be easier.
5
Add shortening to pan and melt, I like Crisco butter flavor, you may use vegetable oil if you prefer.
6
Place chicken breasts in pan, shortening should come about halfway of the chicken so add more if necessary.
7
Sprinkle half tablespoon of lemon pepper on top of chicken and fry until edges brown.
8
Turn over and sprinkle remaining half tablespoon of lemon pepper on top.
9
Fry chicken on medium heat, browned to your liking.
10
A few minutes before chicken is done, drizzle vinegar over all pieces of chicken, the drizzle will sizzle -- love that sound.
11
Remove chicken from pan and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to help absorb some of the grease.
