    Title: Popeyes Famous Fried Chicken Recipe
    Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Chilies
    Yield: 8 Pieces

    6 c Oil
    2/3 c A-P flour
    1 tb Salt
    2 tb White pepper
    1 ts Cayenne pepper
    2 ts Paprika
    3 lg Eggs
    3 1/2 lb Frying chicken w/skin;
    - cut-up (2 breasts, 2 legs,
    - 2 thighs, 2 wings)

    Heat oil over medium heat in a deep fryer or in a deep
    cast-iron skillet on the stove. Combine the flour, salt,
    peppers, and paprika in a bowl. In another bowl, break
    eggs and beat until well-blended. Check temperature of
    oil by dropping a pinch of flour mixture in pan. If the
    oil bubbles rapidly around the flour, it will be the
    right temperature. Dip each piece of chicken into eggs;
    then coat generously with the flour mixture. Drop each
    piece into the hot oil and fry for 15 to 25 minutes or
    until the chicken is a dark golden brown. Drain chicken
    on paper towels and serve warm.

    Makes 8 pieces.

    UDD NOTES: This recipe is *much* closer to the real
    deal than the late Gloria Pitzer's "recipe detective"
    version. When I make it I make the cayenne and paprika
    equal (1 1/2 ts ea). I also eschew the white meat
    parts in favour of legs and thighs.

    Serves 2 normal people
