4. Fried Chicken a L'italiennetag: chicken
Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients
| | |
| 1 | | Chicken, cut into 8 pieces |
| | Tomato Batter |
| 1/4 | c | Butter |
| 1/4 | c | Oil |
| | Tomato Sauce |
DirectionsRather suspiciously, this dish was also know as fried chicken al la Mexicaine. The old-fashioned tomato sauce does not taste much like the tomato sauces we know today; it's tart and work better as a condiment on the side than as a sauce to be poured over (though it is exactly the sort of tomato sauce that was served on pasta 100 years ago).
Serve with peas and mashed potatoes. From "The Original White House Cookbook" (1887), by Hugo Ziemann & Mrs. F.L. Gillette.
Dip chicken pieces in Tomato Batter. In large skillet melt butter with oil. Add chicken pieces two at time and fry until brown (more than two pieces at time can be fried as long as pieces are not crowded). Serve, passing hot Tomato Sauce.

11. Fried Chicken and Pan Gravytag: chicken
Yield: 1 Servings
Ingredients
DirectionsPut a cup of flour seasoned with salt and pepper in a large, brown grocery bag. Then put the chicken pieces in a few at a time and shake vigorously to coat them well. Fry 'em uncovered in about a quarter inch oil for 45 minutes or so. Drain the excess oil, leaving about three tablespoons and brown an equal amount of flour in the oil, then gradually whisk in a cup or so of milk. Viola! Fried Chicken and Pan Gravy. This was how my grandmother made fried chicken and it was indisputably the BEST in the world! I do it exactly as she did, but still can't get it that good... This should make a nice, crispy batch of chicken. If you cover while frying, it will probably come out soggy.
