DIRECTIONS
|
1:
Have broilers split in halves with necks and backbones removed. (Save them for creamy giblet gravy - search recipes.) Sprinkle with Ac'cent, salt, and pepper; let stand while preparing batter.
|
|
2:
Add milk to pancake mix slowly, to make smooth, thin batter. Stir in Ac'cent and beaten egg.
|
|
3:
Melt fat or add oil in Dutch oven to depth of about 3 inches. Heat to 375°F. Dip chicken halves in batter; lower one piece at a time carefully into hot oil. Fry about 3 minutes or until deep golden brown. Bring oil up to frying temperature after each portion is cooked. Repeat until all 4 halves are fried.
|
|
4:
Arrange chicken in a large shallow baking pan; add enough hot water to cover bottom of pan to depth of 1/4-inch. Bake in moderate oven (350°F.) 1 hour or until tender. Serve with creamy giblet gravy.
