Teresa had this in her Best of 2018 cookbook, so I took her recommendation and made it. I really enjoyed it. The seasoned flour was a good mix of flavors. I too only baked it for about 1/2 hour. Thanks for sharing this nice keeper.

We ate this chicken with smiles on our faces. So darn good. Crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. Great blend of spices really made this extra special for us!

I'm not sure if I would say it was close to KFC...but it's darn good...I think the cook time is off...I did my final cooking in the oven for 30 minutes...I used large chicken breast cut in half...I had extra flour mixture so I have it in my freezer to use again...this is going in my best of 2018 cookbook...
