Sweet Tea Fried Chicken Recipe

Recipe By 12 Tomatoes

Ask anyone in the south and theyll tell you that fried chicken is one of the best ways to eat chicken. And one of the best things to have with that fried chicken has got to be sweet tea. But, have you ever tried combining the 2? The results far exceeded our expectations for flavor and tenderness, so id say this recipe is a definite keeper. It does add some time to the process, which is already laborious, but if you love homemade fried chicken like i do then its worth it.
