Sunday Fried Chicken

Submitted by looneytunesfan

"Like most fried chicken recipes, the chicken parts are coated with a seasoned flour mixture and browned in oil. This recipe adds the convienent step of finishing the cooking in the oven. This gives the cook time to prepare the rest of the meal."

I have never really made fried chicken before and this recipe made it so easy! I had to sub cornmeal for tamales in place of the regular cornmeal but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. I ended up with moist chicken with a crunchy coating. Once the chicken was in the oven I had time to cook the carrots and shrooms. Thanks for sharing this easy way to prepare chicken Looneytunesfan!
