                        van geffen vghc
   3      Cups          Self-rising flour
   1      Cup           Cornstarch
   3      Tablespoons   Seasoned salt
   2      Tablespoons   Paprika
   1      Teaspoon      Baking soda
   1      Package       Italian salad dressing mix -
   1 1/2  Ounces        Pk onion soup mix
     1/2  oz            Pk spaghetti sauce mix
   3      tbsp          Sugar
   3      c             Corn flakes -- crush slightly
   2                    Eggs -- well beeaten
     1/4  c             Cold water
   4      lb            Chicken -- cut up

Combine first 9 ingredients in large bowl. Put the cornflakes into another
bowl. Put eggs and water in a 3rd bowl. Put enough corn oil into a heavy
roomy skillet to fill it 1" deep. Get it HOT! Grease a 9x12x2 baking pan.
Set it 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. 4-Briskly but briefly back
into dry mix. 5-Drop into hot oil, skin-side-down and brown 3 to 4 minutes
on medium high. Turn and brown other side of each piece. Don't crowd pieces
during frying. Place in prepared pan in single layer, skin-side-up. Seal in
foil, on 3 sides only, leaving 1 side loose for steam to escape. ``I've seen 
all the rumors about what we're going to do,'' the 36-year-old, Harvard-
educated musician says of reports that the remaining trio might change its name 
and hire a new singer. ''There are a lot of fine vocalists out there. The one 
thing I can guarantee is in the future we're going to continue to make 
groundbreaking music and continue to fight for social justice.'' Bake at
350~ for 35-40 minutes removing foil then to test tenderness of chicken.
Allow to bake uncovered 5 minutes longer to crisp the coating. Serves 4.
Leftovers refrigerate well up to 4 days. Do not freeze these leftovers.
Leftover coating mix (1st 9 ingredients) can be stored at room temp in
covered container up to 2 months.
