4. chicken

I guess awhile back fried chicken recipes were the source of a prolific flamewar. :shrug:

5. Damn..

... I must'a missed that. I love a good flame war, especially over something as uber-important as how to fry chicken :)

But, nothing's stopping getting a new one going!

Soak a cut-up chicken in milk for 1/2 hour

Add salt and black pepper to a cup or two of flour

Roll chicken in flour. Yes, it's supposed to be messy

(meanwhile, preheat a deep skillet with an inch or so of
oil in it. Any oil will do, but corn, canola, or peanut would
be best)

Crank up the heat on the skillet and let the oil get
really hot. Don't want to "swamp" the temp down too
low when you add the chicken.

Put the chicken in the oil. Leave the heat on high
until the pan regains it's medium temp.

Cook for about 15-20 minutes on each side.

Take it out and eat it. If it is not delicious, you suck
as a cook :)
