Chef Lazarus Lynch of Son of a Southern Chef shows us how to make dinner just like they do down South.

His extra crispy fried chicken sandwiches, oven-roasted sweet potato fries and sweet peach cobbler will charm the pants off your guests.

I must admit, the fried chicken sandwich craze is very widespread these days, but I love mine for its spicy heat and extra crispy texture. This is a sandwich you will forever crave.

From pies to fries, the sweet potato is a staple ingredient in any Southern kitchen. I especially love this recipe because it highlights the versatility of the sweet potato and for its sweet and salty flavor combo.

My dad's peach cobbler was just out of this world. It's really a great summer dessert, but I eat it all year round. Over the years, I've kept this recipe true to its core: a great crust and sweet peaches soaked in cinnamon and sugar. Obviously fresh peaches are better, but this is the way my daddy made it and I ain't changing it.
