Heat half the oil in a large frying pan. Take half of the chicken out of the milk, shake off any excess and put in the bag of seasoned flour. Hold the top closed and shake well. Lift the pieces out and shake off any excess, but dont do this too hard or youll end up with no coating. Lower the pieces into the oil and fry on each side until golden and crisp dont overdo it as the chicken is being baked next and will brown further. Use tongs to turn the chicken and try not to tear the coating.

Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Fried Chicken works really well with Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. You could try Selbach Oster Mosel Riesling Kabinett.

Selbach Oster Mosel Riesling Kabinett
A crackly, starched and impeccable Kabinett; very limey-herbal; especially appley and minerally; stern minty finish. Goes with anything you like in the poultry, shellfish and seafood cuisine, especially if accompanied by cream- or butter based sauces. Great with summer salads and with Pacific Rim Cuisine.
