2 cups of all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons dried whole thyme
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon Morton's Nature's Seasoning
2 eggs, beaten
2/3 cup of milk
1/4 cup of lemon juice
5 pounds chicken pieces
vegetable oil
Combine the first 5 ingredients in a plastic bag, shake well to mix and set aside. Combine the eggs, milk and the lemon juice and stir well. Remove the skin from the chicken and place 2 or 3 pieces of the chicken in the bag at a time. Shake the bag until the chicken pieces are well coated and then dip them in the egg mixture. Return the chicken pieces to the bag and shake again. Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces. Pour the vegetable oil to a depth of about 3/4 inch in a large heavy skillet. Fry 4 or 5 pieces of the chicken at a time in the hot oil over medium heat for about 15 minutes or until golden brown, turning the chicken to brown both sides. Drain the fried chicken pieces on paper towels.
