The word, ‘crack’ is used here because this dish is so delicious…it’s addictive! In 2007 a reporter named Joe Walker visited a local Fresh Fish and Fry in Michigan. He said their fried chicken was so incredibly addictive it should be called ‘crack chicken’ and put that in his article too. The name stuck… and it’s true…so much so that the creator of this dish started boxing the seasoning and selling it to customers. The original Crack Chicken seasoning is creole inspired and is great on not only chicken, but fish dishes, baked potatoes and wedges too. Today the word ‘crack’ is often paired with delicious dishes that are just so good you’ll keep wanting more!
