Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine chicken pieces with 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, pepper, salt, oregano, cinnamon, and poultry seasoning. Allow the chicken to soak in the oil and seasonings for five minutes. In fact, rub the marinade into the chicken using your hands.
- Heat 1/2 cup olive oil over low heat in a 1 1/2 inch deep frying pan with a lid to fit (to keep the juices in the chicken). Carefully lay the chicken pieces in the frying pan. Put the lid on the pan, and cook until chicken is done, about 20 minutes, flipping pieces occasionally. Increase heat to medium-high, and cook just long enough to make the outside of the chicken brown.
- Serve hot, garnished with lemon wedges. Squeeze some lemon on the chicken for delicious added flavor.

GEORGE'S CRISP CRUSTED OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN BY JUDY- JUDE
I am posting this recipe to honor Judy- Jude and also for the "Cookathon" in memory of her (Jan. 09). One of her favorite chicken recipes was "George's Oven-Fried Chicken" and this is the other one. It was created by her father and I often call it KFC Judy D's Father's Recipe(s). Instant Potato Flakes are used and it has a nice taste.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Wash chicken pieces and pat dry, set aside.
- Beat egg and milk in a bowl.
- In another bowl, mix potato flakes and the rest of the spices and parmesan cheese.
- Melt butter in a shallow baking pan (13"x9"x2").
- Roll chicken first in egg mixture, then in the potato flake mixture.
- Next roll coated chicken pieces in the butter as you place them into the pan (skin side up).
- Bake at 400 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until juices from meat run clear when pierced with a fork.
- Note: If you use garlic powder just be sure to add 1 teaspoon of salt; Judy used seasoned salt per her dad's little crib note on the recipe. I often use more spices to make it taste a little like Kentucky Fried Chicken. This recipe was written up pretty much as I had received it from Judy. Enjoy!

GEORGE'S OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN BY JUDY- JUDE
I have made this recipe in the past and I am posting it in honor of Judy- Jude. Also posting for the "Cookathon" in memory of her (Jan, 09). She had many favorite recipes, however, this one by her father she really liked. I refer to it as KFC Judy D's Father's Recipe. It is very good.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees.
- Wash chicken and pat dry.
- Mix flour, salt, paprika, poultry seasoning and pepper.
- Place in a 13"x9"x2" pan with shortening & butter in the oven, melt the shortening & butter.
- Place chicken skin side down in melted shortening & butter.
- Bake uncovered for 30 minutes.
- Turn chicken; cook 30 minutes longer or until thickest pieces are fork tender and juices run clear when pierced.
- NOTE:. This recipe is basically written as is, which I had received from Judy. She has also substituted skinless chicken pieces. And I have often added more spices, to make it similar to Kentucky Fried Chicken -- and used boneless chicken as well. Enjoy, it is a very good recipe and a withh a nice KFC taste as well.
Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven to fry the chicken. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the chicken from burning.
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken. If the oil is not hot enough, the chicken will absorb too much oil and become greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pot or Dutch oven. If you add too much chicken at once, the oil temperature will drop and the chicken will not cook evenly.
- Cook the chicken in batches if necessary. This will help to ensure that all of the chicken is cooked through.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
George's Greek Fried Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of the flavorful marinade and the crispy fried chicken is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give George's Greek Fried Chicken a try!
