This smothered chicken and gravy recipe by Cooking With TK on YouTube is a homemade southern dinner that is made from scratch. This is an old school southern chicken and gravy recipe that I’d love to make. I would serve this with a side of cornbread too so I can dip in the gravy. Also, I love gravy with rice so I would smother the gravy and chicken over a bed of rice and it would make it into such a filling dinner meal.
First, season the chicken and flour to your liking using the seasonings above in the ingredients list. Heat the cooking oil in a pan at 350F. Fill the pan to about 1 inch of oil to fry the chicken. Then coat the chicken with flour. Fry the chicken on each side for 3-4 minutes for up to 16 minutes. Repeat until all the chicken is fried. Use the pan drippings for the gravy.

Next, once the chicken and gravy are finished, add the fried chicken to a baking dish and pour the gravy all on top. Bake 45 minutes at 350F. Also, you can place the chicken in a skillet and pour the gravy on top to cook on the stove.
Overall, I love gravy and fried chicken. This is the definition of soul food cooking and the fried chicken is smothered in gravy which adds more flavor. I definitely need to give this recipe a go because it’s super simple.
