Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat it dry. Beat the eggs in a 9 x 13-inch dish. Lay the chicken pieces in the dish, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Turn the chicken and season the other side, then slosh the chicken parts around in the egg until well coated. Place enough shortening or oil in a cast-iron skillet or electric skillet to come just over halfway up the sides of the chicken parts. Heat just until smoking (375 degrees). Place the flour in a paper bag, add the chicken pieces, a few at a time, and shake to coat well. Remove the chicken with tongs and place it in the hot fat. Cover the pan, leaving a crack for steam to escape, lower the heat (to 325 degrees for electric skillet), and cook for 10 minutes. Turn the chicken with tongs, cover again (leaving the lid open just a crack), and cook for 10 minutes longer. Very large pieces may need to be cooked a little longer. Drain the chicken on paper towels and transfer to a platter.
• To make the glaze, melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk in the honey until well blended. Bring to a simmer and add the pecans. Simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ladle the glaze over the hot fried chicken and serve.

HONEY PECAN GLAZED FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• 1. Wash the chicken and pat dry.
• 2. Place the buttermilk and eggs in a 9x13 inch baking dish and mix. Place the chicken into the buttermilk dish. With a spoon, cover the tops of the chicken with the buttermilk mixture. Set out for at least an hour, flipping the chicken once after 30 minutes. You can also leave this in the fridge covered overnight for extra flavor and tenderness.
• 3. Combine all the dry ingredients in a balking dish. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture.
• 4. Place the chicken pieces in the fryer for 12-14 minutes or deep skillet for 6-7 minutes on each side at 350 degrees without crowding.
• 5. While the chicken if frying, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Pour in the honey and mix with the butter. Place the pecans in the mix and bring to a boil on medium heat, then quickly reduce to a simmer for 8-10 minutes, mixing occasionally. Keep an eye on this, because you don't want it to caramelize. Take off stove and set aside until all chicken is finished frying.
• 6. When chicken is finished frying, drain it on a paper towel-lined plate. Transfer drained chicken onto a serving platter and drizzle the honey pecan glaze over the chicken.
