This is one of our favorite recipes to take along on a picnic. We like to eat the chicken cold, along with a salad and watermelon. It’s a real treat!

For our family, it’s not a picnic unless there’s fried chicken! Chicken, deviled eggs and potato salad are all “musts” for a picnic as far as my husband is concerned. This is a “Golden Oldie” recipe for me—I’ve used it any number of times, both for leisure time picnics and as part of a meal I pack and take out to the field for my grain farmer. I enjoy cooking, especially giving a recipe a couple of tries and adjusting it or throwing it out. I always remember back to the way Mom or Grandma used to do things when I’m in the kitchen—the memory inspires me!
