| 1. In a medium container place chicken and cover with milk. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to overnight. This helps tenderize the meat, but is optional | 2. In a large saucepan over a medium-high heat, transfer chicken into pot, then pour in the milk. Bring milk to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes. | 3. Remove the chicken from the milk, and place on a rack to cool. Allow them to sit until warm about 15 minutes, and then pat dry. | 4. Heat vegetable shortening in a Dutch oven or skillet over high heat just until it's near the smoking point around 325 degrees F. | 5. In a large zip-lock bag, add salt, flour, cayenne pepper, shake to combine. | 6. In a medium bowl, beat 1 egg. | 7. Place each piece of chicken, 1 at a time, in the bag and shake to coat the chicken. Then dip chicken into the egg to coat. Place the chicken back into the flour to coat for a second time. Repeat this method on remaining 3 pieces of chicken. | 8. Gently drop each piece of chicken into hot oil, allowing the skin to crisp and turn golden brown in color, about 1 minute per side. Remove from the oil and transfer to a paper towel lined plate. | 9. Serve immediately. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
