Fried Chicken Recipe
Did you know that your favourite fried chicken was actually an elite dish back in the day? While today we find the South of America boasting of their fried chicken and even a fast-food chain dedicated to the dish, it was not always the case. The fried chicken was considered to be a luxury item because special kind of chickens were required for it and it was a lengthy process so the African-Americans cooked it for their masters. Following the Scottish rule, the Africans adapted the fried chicken to their cuisine during the 19th century since Blacks were not allowed in most restaurants. The fried chicken became a way of empowering these classes and the women played a major role in spreading it to the South. The women fried the chicken and served it to satisfy the hunger of passengers on the train that stopped at Gordonsville. Fried chicken is a delicious non-vegetarian snack. It is best when the skin is still fresh and crispy. Fried chicken is also known as southern fried chicken.
