Here’s how to cook “Fried Chicken”

Ingredients:

* 1 whole chicken cut into pieces
* oil for frying
* 3 tbsp rock salt
* 5 cups water
* 3/4 cup all purpose flour
* 1/4 cup cornstarch
* 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
* 1/2 tsp dried basil
* 1 tsp paprika
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp pepper
* 2 tbsp DRY instant chicken broth
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* 1 tsp onion powder

Directions:

* Mix water and rock salt to make brine. Soak the chicken in it for about an hour in the fridge.
* Mix the breading ingredients. Sift to remove any lumps.
* Remove the chicken from the brine and rinse with water. Pat with some paper towel to remove extra moisture then dredge in coating mix.
* Deep fry in hot oil over medium high heat for about 15-20 minutes or until chicken is done. In this recipe I used some margarine and mixed it with the oil for richer taste.
* Take out of the oil when done and set aside.
* In the same pan, I remove the oil leaving just enough to use in making a rue out of the remaining breading mixture. Add some water or chicken stock and whisk until it boils and become thick. Adjust seasoning if needed.
* Serve while still hot!
