CORNMEAL OVEN FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Prep: Preheat the oven to 410°F. Place a dark-colored baking sheet or pan in the oven to heat up (you want it to get really hot).
• Make egg mix: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and the buttermilk.
• Make dry mix: In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and seasoning together.
• Coat chicken: Dip the chicken pieces in the flour, coating evenly and shaking off any extra flour. Next, coat the chicken pieces in the egg mixtures. Then, dip them into the flour again, this time coating very well.
• Put chicken on pan: Take the baking tray out of the oven and melt the butter on it. Place the coated chicken pieces on the tray. Make sure there's butter underneath every chicken piece, or it will stick! Add more butter if it's not enough to cover your pan!
• Bake chicken: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). IF THE CHICKEN STICKS: Do NOT just flip it! Use a spatula to carefully loosen it from the pan, then flip. Otherwise the breading will fall off. Finish by broiling the chicken until it turns golden brown and crispy.

FRIED CHICKEN WITH CORNMEAL

Steps:

• Trim the chickens of as much obvious fat as possible.
• In a large shallow pan, stir together the lemon juice, kosher salt and hot sauce. Add the chicken pieces to the mixture and marinate, refrigerated, for at least two hours. Turn the chicken at least three times during the marination.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• In a doubled-up, large paper bag, mix together the cornmeal and salt. Put three or four pieces of chicken in the bag and shake until they are completely coated. Remove to a platter and continue until all the pieces are coated. Shake off excess cornmeal.
• In a large, oblong, deep roasting pan, pour in a half inch of vegetable oil. Put the pan in the preheated oven. After about 15 minutes, when the oil is hot, use tongs to gently place the chicken pieces in the pan, being careful not to crowd them. Cook on one side, about 15 to 20 minutes. Then turn on the other side and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure that the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Repeat this step, frying batches, until all the chicken is cooked.
• Transfer the chicken to a large platter and keep warm in a 250-degree oven. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh, chopped marjoram. Decorate the platter with sprigs of rosemary and thin slices of lemon.
