Fake kentucky fried chicken

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 pounds Chicken fryer parts Make a paste of the following:
2 packs Good Seasonings Italian or Mild Italian Salad Dressing mix used right from the package.
3 tablespoons Flour
2 teaspoons Salt (that's not too much)
¼ cup Lemon juice (or vinegar)
2 tablespoons Margarine or cooking oil

Directions

Spread this paste evenly over chicken pieces; stack in a bowl; cover and refrigerate at least two hours or better yet, overnight. About 1 hour before serving, heat about 1½ pints cooking oil in heavy saucepan (9 inches in diameter, with depth of oil about 3 inches) to a temperature of 425 degrees. I prefer my Oster Super Cooker--but using an electric deep fryer I would have the temperature at 400 degrees.

Put about 2 cups milk or Club Soda or beer in a deep, narrow bowl & dip each piece chicken in the liquid, letting the excess drip off.

Dust lightly but evenly in Aunt Jemima Pancake Flour (or a good brand). DO NOT OVERCOAT!!!

Dry pieces a few minutes without letting them touch each other. Fry few pieces at a time. Place on a cookie sheet without letting them touch each other and bake uncovered 350 degrees 30 minutes.

Serves about 6 to 8 people. I encourage you to experiment with amount of salad dressing mix according to your own taste preferences. But much of it washes off in milk so 2 pkgs needed! Chipped from the bottom of Sharon's Igloo Submitted By DOROTHY FLATMAN On 09-06-95
