Recipe - Fake Kentucky Fried Chicken

3 pound Chicken fryer parts
Seasoning Paste:
2 pack Italian Dressing mix**
3 tablespoon Flour
2 teaspoon Salt
One fourth cup Lemon juice (or vinegar)
2 tablespoon Margarine or cooking oil
Coating Mix:
2 cup Milk, club soda or beer
Dry pancake mix
For Frying:
1 One half pt Cooking oil

**Note: Use the Good Seasoning brand Italian or Mild Italian Dressing Mix
right from the package.

Begin with about 3 lbs fryer parts. Cut the breast pieces in half. Fries
much quicker when pieces are small.

Combine Seasoning Paste ingredients (dressing mix, flour, salt, lemon or
vinegar, and margarine or oil) . Spread this paste evenly over chicken
pieces. Stack in a bowl; cover and refrigerate at least two hours or better
yet, overnight. About 1 hour before serving, heat about 1 One half pints cooking
oil in a heavy saucepan ( 9 inches in diameter,with the depth of oil of
about 3 inches) to a temperature of 425 degrees.

I prefer my Oster Super Cooker, but using an electric deep fryer I would
have the temperature at about 400 degrees. Put about 2 cups milk or club
soda or beer in a deep, narrow bowl & dip each piece chicken in the liquid,
letter the excess drip off. Dust lightly but evenly in Aunt Jemima Pancake
Flour ( or a good brand ).DO NOT OVERCOAT!!! Dry pieces a few minutes
without letting them touch each other. Fry a few pieces at a time. Place on
a cookie sheet without letting them touch each other and bake at 350F
uncovered for 30 minutes. Serves 68 persons.

I encourage you to experiment with amount of salad dressing mix according
to your own taste preferences, but much of it washes off in the milk so 2
packages are at least needed.
