Popeye's - Fried Chicken
3 cups self-rising flour
1 cup cornstarch
3 tablespoons seasoned salt
2 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 package dry Italian salad dressing mix
1 package dry onion soup mix
1 package dry spaghetti sauce mix
3 tablespoons sugar
3 cups corn flakes, crushed
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup cold water
4 pounds chicken, cut up
Combine first 9 ingredients in large bowl.
Put the cornflakes into another bowl.
Put eggs and water in a 3rd bowl.
Put enough corn oil into a heavy roomy skillet to fill it 1
inch deep. Get it HOT!
Grease a 9x12x2 baking pan. Set it aside.
Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
Dip chicken pieces 1 piece at a time as follows:
1-Into dry coating mix.
2-Into egg and water mix.
3-Into corn flakes.
4.-Briskly but briefly back into dry mix.
Drop into hot oil, skin-side-down and brown 3 to 4 minutes on
medium/high.
Turn and brown other side of each piece.
Don't crowd pieces during frying.
Place in prepared pan in single layer, skin-side-up.
Seal in foil, on 3 sides only, leaving 1 side loose for steam
to escape. Bake for 35-40 minutes removing foil then to test
tenderness of chicken.
Allow to bake uncovered 5 minutes longer to crisp the coating.
Serves 4.
Notes:
Leftovers refrigerate well up to 4 days.
Do not freeze these leftovers.
Leftover coating mix (1st 9 ingredients) can be stored at
room temp in covered container up to 2 months.
