Ingredients

1 large egg
1 cup buttermilk
1 (3-pound) chicken (cut into 6 pieces)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon onion salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons Accent (MSG seasoning)
1 can lard (enough to cover chicken in the fryer)

Steps:

Gather the ingredients.
Combine the egg and buttermilk in a large bowl. Soak the chicken pieces in the mixture.
Put the flour in a separate bowl and whisk in all 11 herbs and spices-salt, sage , pepper, paprika, oregano, onion salt, marjoram , dried basil, chili powder, garlic powder , and MSG seasoning.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk mixture, letting the excess drip off. Roll the chicken in the seasoned flour until completely covered.
Add the lard to a Dutch oven or pressure fryer and heat to 365 F. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's directions if using a pressure fryer.
Using a utensil, lower 4 pieces of the chicken into the hot oil, and if using a pressure fryer, lock the lid in place. Be careful not to burn yourself with the hot oil.
Allow to fry for 8 to 10 minutes, until the chicken turns golden brown and thoroughly cooks.
If using a pressure fryer, release the pressure according to the manufacturer's directions. Then, remove the finished chicken to paper towels or a metal rack to drain.
Repeat with the remaining 2 pieces of chicken.
Serve and enjoy.
