  • Meanwhile, combine the flour, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Toss the chicken pieces in the seasoned flour to coat.
  • Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, and cook until lightly browned and almost cooked through.
