Directions

  • With a sharp knife, cut leg quarters at the joints. Sprinkle chicken
  • with 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper.
  • In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, rosemary,
  • thyme, sage, marjoram and parsley. In a shallow bowl, combine the
  • egg, milk and lemon juice. Add chicken pieces, one at a time, to bag
  • and shake to coat. Dip chicken in egg mixture and coat again with
  • flour mixture.
  • In a 12-in. cast-iron skillet, heat 1/2 cup oil. Fry chicken, a few
  • pieces at a time, for 5-6 minutes or until golden brown. Remove
  • chicken and keep warm; drain drippings.
  • In the same skillet, cook potatoes in remaining oil for 8-10 minutes
  • or until slightly tender. Add onion and remaining salt; cook 5-6
  • minutes longer or until onion is tender. Stir in garlic; top with
  • chicken.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until a meat
  • thermometer reads 180° and potatoes are tender.
  • In a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients. Brush over chicken
  • just before serving. Yield: 4 servings.
