2 eggs – well beaten
1/4 cup cold water

Put enough corn oil into a heavy roomy skillet to fill it 1″ deep.
Heat skillet.
Grease a 9x12x2 baking pan.
Set aside.
Preheat oven to 350.
Dip chicken pieces 1 piece at a time as follows:
1) Into dry coating mix.
2) Into egg and water mix.
3) Into corn flakes.
Briskly but briefly back into dry mix.
Drop into hot oil, skin-side-down and brown 3 to 4 minutes on medium high.
Turn and brown other side of each piece.
Place chicken in prepared pan in single layer, skin-side-up.
Seal in foil, on 3 sides only, leaving 1 side loose for steam to escape.
Bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes removing foil then to test tenderness of chicken.
Allow to bake uncovered 5 minutes longer to crisp the coating.
