Steps:
- Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture. Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed stockpot to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 360 degrees F on a thermometer.
- Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

FEIGER'S OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN
This recipe was given to me by a former patient's wife, Mrs. Feiger, many years ago. I was tired of making the same things for dinner and asked for a new idea. It is so simple but so delicious! Many people have asked for the recipe and were surprised at how simple it was. Please follow the directions exactly, because if you don't, the results will not be the same as mine! You can use any chicken parts that you like, but we love to use wings and serve them as an appetizer. Reheated, they taste great the next day, if not better (should you have any left!). Time does not include overnight marinading. Note: For less calories you can remove the skin from chicken parts and use low fat dressing. Also keep in mind that you are discarding a large part of the marinade, so those calories and fats are not consumed.

Steps:
- Mix cranberry sauce, soup mix and dressing together. You can break it up with your cleaned hand;it is much faster and better that way.
- Add chicken wings (or other chicken parts) and mix well together.
- Marinade overnight, mixing the chicken once or twice.
- Turn oven to 400 degrees.
- Spray cookie sheet/s with Pam or similar spray. Place chicken parts on it, making sure they don't touch each other. DO NOT POUR MARINADE OVER CHICKEN! If you do, you will get stewed chicken with a soupy consistency, not oven-fried!
- Bake at 400 degrees for one hour (check chicken after 45 minutes to make sure it doesn't burn. Depending on your oven, it may be ready after 45 minutes).
- Either discard the marinade or use it to make more chicken, but don't use it as is, since raw chicken was in it. You can try and cook it thoroughly, and perhaps use it for some sauce, but this chicken is intended to be eaten without additional sauce, especially the wings. Great finger-lickin' food!

Tips:
- For crispy chicken, pat the chicken dry before coating it in the breadcrumb mixture.
- To make sure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check that the chicken is cooked through by cutting into it and making sure that the juices run clear.
- For a healthier version of this recipe, you can bake the chicken instead of frying it.
- You can also use other types of fruit in the cranberry sauce, such as blueberries, raspberries, or apples.
Conclusion:
Oven-fried chicken with cranberry sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the cranberry sauce is the perfect complement. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
