Popeye’s Fried Chicken

3 cups Self−rising flour
1 cup Cornstarch
3 tbl. Seasoned salt
2 tbl. Paprika
1 teas. Baking soda
1 pk. Italian Salad Dressing Mix Powder
1 pk. Onion Soup Mix −− (1 1/2 Ounces)
1 pk. Spaghetti sauce mix −− (1/2 Ounce)
3 tbl. Sugar
3 cups Corn flakes −− crushed
2 Eggs −− well beaten
1/4 cup Cold water
4 lb. Chicken −− cut up

Combine first 9 ingredients in large bowl. Put the cornflakes into
another bowl. Put eggs and water in a 3rd bowl. Put enough corn oil
into a heavy roomy skillet to fill it 1" deep. Get it HOT! Grease a
9x12x2 baking pan. Set it aside. Preheat oven to 350~. Dip chicken
pieces 1 piece at a time as follows: 1−Into dry coating mix. 2−Into
egg and water mix. 3−Into corn flakes. 4−Briskly but briefly back
into dry mix. 5−Drop into hot oil, skin−side−down and brown 3 to 4
minutes on medium high. Turn and brown other side of each piece.
Don’t crowd pieces during frying. Place in prepared pan in single
layer, skin−side−up. Seal in foil, on 3 sides only, leaving 1 side
loose for steam to escape. Bake at 350~ for 35−40 minutes removing
foil then to test tenderness of chicken. Allow to bake uncovered 5
minutes longer to crisp the coating. Serves 4. Leftovers refrigerate
well up to 4 days. Do not freeze these leftovers. Leftover coating
mix (1st 9 ingredients) can be stored at room temp in covered
container up to 2 months.
