FABULOUS SOUTHERN-STYLE OVEN FRIED CHICKEN
I devised this to resolve my southern husband's taste for fried chicken with a HEALTHY, non-deep-fried version, with no wheat, milk, eggs, or processed or artificial ingredients. It's a delicious EASY recipe that works for chicken legs, thighs, or breasts. Make PLENTY in the summer to eat as is, or use leftovers for chicken SALAD!

Steps:
- For moistest results soak chicken pieces in a bowl of salted water for 15 minutes before cooking.
- Line baking tray with foil and spray lightly with oil.
- Grind dry ingredients in coffee grinder or with pestle and mortar.
- Pour into a bowl and add water little by little while stirring until a smooth runny paste is achieved. You may need more or less water.
- Remove chicken from soaking water, and pat dry if necessary.
- Dip into the rosemary coating until covered, and place on baking tray. This will seal in the juices.
- Bake at 365º for one hour.
- Once it's in, put your feet up for at least ten minutes, drink a glass of cold water, breathe deeply - and relax. Your chicken is safe.
- Suggestions: Serve with brown rice and greens, or if you have cooked breasts or thighs, then serve the chicken chopped into a salad with cucumbers, roma tomatoes and red onion, topped with Chimichurri sauce - a purée of cilantro, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and salt.

Tips:
- Use a whole chicken cut into 8 pieces, or chicken breasts or thighs. You can also use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, but they will cook more quickly.
- Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
- Dredge the chicken in flour. This will help the chicken to brown and crisp.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. You can also use a Dutch oven or deep fryer.
- Fry the chicken in the hot oil until it is golden brown and cooked through. This will take about 10-12 minutes per side.
