Louisiana Chicken Recipe
This chicken recipe as name suggest was first invented in state of Louisiana in United States of America. So this one is one of the very few dishes which can be called truly American dish. It is tastier than KFC original recipe (my opinion). Again it is easy to cook and doesn’t have too much of calories as you get in chicken dishes from big chain houses. Of course it is easy to cook and children love this chicken too. It is better to give children this chicken then chicken or beef burgers.
