These are the recipes I use every day . . . not just my own, but also my favorites from family, friends, and other sources. It is a continual work in progress as I fine-tune recipes, add photos, and try new things. Please leave your comments so that I can learn from you too!

Crispy Fried Chicken

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup cornstarch
3 tsp. salt
2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. rubbed sage
1 tsp. pepper
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
2 broiler/fryer chickens (3 to 4 lbs. each), cut up
vegetable oil for frying

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the dry ingredients.

In a shallow bowl, beat eggs and water.  Dip chicken in egg mixture; place in the bag, a few pieces at a time, and shake until coated.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In an electric skillet, heat 1" of oil to 375 F.  Fry chicken, a few pieces at a time, for 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden and crispy.

Place in two ungreased 15"x10"x1" baking pans.  Bake, uncovered, for 25-30 minutes or until chicken is tender and juices run clear.

Yields:  12 servings
