Grandma's Dixie Fried Chicken

"This was something my grandmother used to make. She passed away a few years ago, and I just recently was given her recipe indexes. I will be posting some of my childhood favorites as a tribute to her. Like many old time recipes, the spices are pretty bland. Feel free to kick this one up with garlic, chili peppers, or whatever you'd like!"

  1. This made a very moist chicken. We thought the Dixie Mix would make a nice coating for fried fish. This was the first time I have had a cornmeal coating on fried chicken. It gave a very different texture. Thanks Chipotle Chick. Bullwinkle.
