I fried up some chicken last night. These were cheap frozen thighs in a 5 lb
box. It's the way we bought chicken back in the good old days. We didn't
have no fancy schmancy chicken in a package back then - and that's the way
we liked it! I was filled with trepidation since I haven't tried chicken
that way since the 70's and only God knows what might be in the box. As it
goes, the chicken was fine, there was small pieces and large pieces and some
looked a little funny but It's not bad for two solid meals and a couple of
snacks.

My chicken was pretty great but it didn't taste like KFC. It had a distinct
onion taste because chopped dehydrated onion was added to the flour mix. The
chicken was moistened in water and dredged in the flour mix and allowed to
sit for a while. The chicken was fried on medium heat for about 25 minutes.
I turn the chicken frequently, about 12 times. I don't cover the chicken and
let it stew because that's not the kind of person I am.

They look really good! I don't know what KFC chicken tastes like but some
people might think that the fact that they don't is an advantage <g>

No, I never thought you were a stewer ...
