Subj : St. Bruno 02 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Wed May 26 2021 11:59:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Chicken Bruno Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Breads, Citrus Yield: 4 Servings 4 lb Whole chicken; in 10 pieces +=OR=+ 4 lb Bone-in, skin-on chicken - parts 1 1/2 ts Kosher salt 3/4 ts Fresh ground black pepper 5 lg Eggs 1 c Flour 4 c Italian-seasoned dried bread - crumbs 1 c Oil 10 cl Garlic; crushed 3 Sprigs fresh oregano; leaves - from one of them chopped 2 tb Unsalted butter 2 Lemons; one cut in half, one - in wedges Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC. Season the chicken pieces well with the salt & pepper. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. Place flour in a bowl large enough for coating and place bread crumbs in either a large bowl or baking pan. Coat each piece of chicken in flour, coating completely and shaking off excess. Then dip the chicken in the egg wash, then in the bread crumbs, coating completely. Let the coated chicken sit in the bread crumbs for 10 minutes. Discard any remaining egg wash, flour and bread crumbs. Line a plate with paper towels. Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add half the garlic and 2 sprigs of oregano to the oil to infuse it until the garlic is browned, then discard those solids. Working in batches as needed, add the chicken to the oil and fry it for about 10 minutes, until golden brown on both sides, turning as many times as necessary with a large fork (because tongs can dislodge the breading); it will not be cooked through. Transfer the chicken to the lined plate; let it rest for 2 minutes to drain, then arrange that chicken on a baking sheet. Bake (middle rack) for 15 minutes, or until cooked through. Transfer the baking sheet to a wire rack. Combine the butter, the remaining garlic and the chopped oregano in a large saute pan over medium heat. Once the butter has melted, cook for a minute or two, then add the rested chicken pieces, turning to coat with them evenly while you are being careful not to break up the crunchy exterior. To serve, transfer the pieces to a platter; discard the garlic. Squeeze the lemon juice from 1 lemon over the top, and garnish with lemon wedges.
