Kentucky Fried Chicken

From Art Moss

Ingredients

3 lb chicken, cut into parts
2 packages of Italian dressing mix
3 Tbsp flour
2 tsp salt
1/4 c lemon juice
2 Tbsp melted butter
Canola oil
1 c milk
1 1/2 c pancake mix
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp sage
1/4 tsp pepper

Directions

Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Make a paste out of dressing mix, flour, salt, lemon juice, and butter. Spread paste onto chicken, coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours or overnight. Heat 1/2" oil in 2 large skillets and preheat the oven to 350. (Using two skillets instead of one will prevent crowding). Dip chicken into milk and pancake mix. Coat well and dust off excess. Lightly brown chicken in oil for about 4 min on each side. Place chicken in a single layer in a shallow pan and baste with remaining milk. Seal with foil and bake for 1 hour. Uncover chicken and bake for 10 min at 400 to crisp.
