Southern-Style Fried Chicken

Combine buttermilk or yogurt and fried chicken seasoning. Place in a large zip-top bag or container. Add chicken pieces; mix well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

 Preheat oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pan until it registers 325°F on a deep-fry thermometer. Drain chicken pieces from yogurt marinade.

Combine flour and chicken seasoning on a plate. Dredge chicken in seasoned flour. Deep-fry chicken until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

 Serve immediately with gravy or ketchup on the side.
