    Title: Stir-Fried Chicken w/Ketchup
    Categories: Poultry, Chilies, Vegetables, Sauces
    Yield: 4 Servings

    1 1/2 lb Boneless dark meat chicken;
    - in 1/2" - 1" chunks
    1/2 c Flour; more as needed
    4 tb Neutral oil
    Salt & pepper
    2 tb Slivered garlic
    1/4 ts Cayenne; more to taste
    1 c Ketchup.

    Toss chicken with flour so that it is lightly dusted. Put 2
    tablespoons oil in a large skillet, preferably nonstick, and
    turn heat to high. w/hen oil smokes, add chicken in one
    layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

    w/hen chicken browns on one side, toss it and cook until just
    about done: smaller pieces will take 5 minutes total, larger
    pieces about 10. Remove to a plate. Turn off heat and let
    pan cool for a moment.

    Add remaining oil to pan and turn heat to medium high. Add
    garlic and cayenne pepper and cook, stirring, about 2
    minutes. Add ketchup and stir; cook until ketchup bubbles,
    then darkens slightly. Return chicken to pan and stir to
    coat with sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning, then serve.

    Yield: 4 servings.

    Title: Grandma's Fried Chicken
    Categories: Poultry, Eggs, Herbs
    Yield: 5 Servings

    MMMMM----------------------------RUB---------------------------------
    4 ts Salt
    2 ts Onion granules
    1 1/2 ts Fine ground black pepper
    1/2 tb Rubbed sage
    1 ts Dried Thyme
    1/2 ts Garlic granules

    MMMMM--------------------------CHICKEN-------------------------------
    2 (3 1/2 - 4 lb) fryers; cut
    - up in 8 or 10 serving
    - pieces each
    2 c Flour; seasoned w/S&P
    2 lg Eggs; well beaten
    +=WITH=+
    2 c Whole milk
    3 c (or more) Crisco

    In a small container, combine rub ingredients, mixing well.
    Sprinkle the seasoning on chicken and rub it in. Seal the
    chicken in a container and refrigerate overnight, if
    possible.

    Remove chicken from refrigerator at least 1 hour before
    cooking.

    Place seasoned flour in a pie pan and set aside. In a wide,
    shallow bowl, beat eggs and milk and set aside.

    In a large deep skillet, heat oil to 375ºF/190ºC.

    Just before frying, dredge chicken in flour, shake off
    excess. Immediately place chicken in egg mixture and back
    into flour once again.

    Place in hot oil in a single layer and fry until crisp
    before turning. Turn only once.

    NOTE: You can use a deep fryer to good effect here. But,
    you won't get the gribbens and pan juices necessary to
    make a good cream gravy for the mashed 'taters.

    As remembered from watching/helping my Grandmother.
