Recipe: New southern fried chicken
Celebrity chef Curtis Aikens, one of the Food Network's original chefs, whipped up this healthier twist on fried chicken to promote colon health.
“This is my take on the old classic that I grew up with,” says chef Aikens. “I use chicken breast in this recipe; however, you can also use chicken thighs de-boned and veins removed. You can also fry pork chops and other cuts of meat with this simple method. Bon appétit!”
