Try this method
Dredge the pieces in flour with some salt and pepper added
Heat your oil of choice pretty hot and brown the chicken on both sides.(some fresh garlic in the oil is a good thing) We aren't trying to cook it through, just brown it.
Add a little water to the pan reduce heat and cover
Steam the pieces for awhile without turning them.
Remove the lid and turn up the heat until the water is gone and the chicken is browned. Turn it and brown the other side.
Sorry, I can't give you cooking times.
This is the way my Grandmother fried chicken and it is very good
I know she used lard. Ken
