    Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Coat each piece with honey.
  • 2
    In a shallow dish or pie plate, mix together the garlic powder, chicken broth mix and flour. Dredge honey-coated chicken, one piece at a time, in the flour mixture to cover completely laying them out on a piece of wax paper while the oil/shortening heats up.

    Heat the shortening/oil to cover almost an inch of the skillet bottom. Place chicken in the hot oil or shortening and fry at least 5 minutes on first side before turning. fry at least 5 minutes on other side. Then fry until jices run clear when poked. Do not let pieces touch one another (don't over-crowd the fry pan).
