4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 ounces Frozen Lemonade Concentrate
1 cup Water
2½ pounds Fryer; Cut up
¼ cup Flour; Unbleached
1 teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Black Pepper; Ground
1 cup Vegetable Oil
2 tablespoons Butter; Melted

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix lemonade concentrate and water in a small bowl. Pour over chicken in larger bowl. Refrigerate 2 hours or longer. Drain chicken and reserve liquid. Mix together the flour, salt, and pepper in a small paper bag. Add well drained chicken, one piece at a time, and shake to coat evenly. Heat oil in large skillet over moderate heat. Add floured chicken; cook until evenly browned, turning pieces over carefully. Remove chicken and arrange in a single layer in a shallow baking pan. Brush chicken with melted butter. Add reserved lemonade. Bake uncovered about 1 hour, basting chicken with lemonade from pan every 15 minutes. About 15 minutes before chicken is done, drain off excess juice from pan.
