Inspired by the broasting method, our Southern Fried Chicken recipe promises moist dark and white meat enveloped in an extra crunchy crust.

Instead of all-purpose flour, this recipe uses self-rising flour for that perfect crunch. Get ready for a finger-licking batch of fried chicken that’s sure to please whoever you share it with.

• 2 quarts vegetable or canola oil
• 2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• ½ tsp. pepper
• 3 eggs
• ½ cup hot pepper sauce, like Tabasco
• 1 cup self-rising flour
• 1 (3 to 4 lb.) chicken, cut into 8 pieces

• Start by heating a large pot or deep fryer over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F.
• In a small bowl, blend the garlic powder, salt, and pepper, and then set aside. In a shallow bowl, beat together the eggs and hot sauce, whilst in an additional shallow dish or pie tin, lay out the flour.
• Preheat your oven to 200°F.
• Sprinkle the garlic mixture across all sides of the chicken pieces, and then dip each one into the egg mixture, eliminating any excess flour. Place the chicken parts into the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Discard the lid, turn the chicken, and cook for an extra 8 to 10 minutes until the chicken pieces achieve a pleasant golden color and their center temperature reads 165°F.
• Now your succulent broasted-style chicken is all set to serve with your choice of side dishes! Bon Appétit!

The right hairstyle makes you feel comfortable and more confident. Mid-length hair is particularly versatile, making room for several cuts, styles, and dyes. Embrace a fresh look just in time for this fall, with the following hairstyles, perfect for the chilly months ahead.

Curtain Bangs

It is a chic layered hairstyle with a volume and feathering accent, which gives your hair loose and fluffy energy with an effortlessly cool look. Curtain bangs can be styled using any hair tool like a curling iron, circular brush, or barrettes. This hairstyle looks extremely fashionable with medium to long hair. Also, you can dye your curtain bangs with any highlighting technique. It’s perfect for those who love a cozy vibe for the season of fall.

Balayage

This fall, try something daring with blonde balayage highlights. It’s perfect for those who want to try a low-impact dyed hairstyle. This simple yet gorgeous style is particularly ideal for fall, as it creates a more organic and natural look with a soft sun-kissed color, which matches the harvest season tones of the earth. Take your balayage look to the next level with a sleek hair updo or a blowout and get red-carpet ready!

Ombre

Another fall-perfect dyed hairstyle is ombre. It’s a bit bolder than balayage but no less pretty with a soft vibe. Ombre hair gradually becomes lighter at the end of your hair, eliminating the extra color-impacted dimension of balayage. This versatile hair design lets you enjoy the freedom of customizing it to your preference. Try mixing up fall ombre colors with striking violets and indigos for a unique celebratory look.

Beachy Waves

Trust us, this otherwise summer-special wavy and tousled hairstyle looks extra flattering with fall colors. The relaxed curls of the wave style well with textured and thicker hair types. With beachy waves, you can create seamlessly low-maintenance styles like buns, braids, and crowns. To achieve the look easily and naturally, braid your hair while it’s still damp, and keep it that way for some time. Then release the braids and voila!

Lob

Lob is a cute short name for a long bob. This layered haircut comes with the same elegance of a bob cut, but with the added advantage of extra length for comfort and styling. Give your lob haircut blunt ends and style freely for a bold look this fall season. Perfectly showcasing your poise, this classic and flattering hairstyle is truly regal and will make you look graceful and casual at the same time.
