My mother-in-law used to make “Those Potatoes”. I have no idea where she got the recipe from. They are very crispy and delicious. It works best if you cook them in a cast iron skillet.

Oven-Fried Chicken

Fried chicken is a mess to make. After watching an episode of the Barefoot Contessa, I decided to try it. It’s called Oven Fried Chicken, which you fry in the beginning and then finish it in the oven. It’s not nearly as messy as the full fried version. It's crispy and moist and goes really well with mashed potatoes.
