How to Make SUNDAY CHICKEN DINNER
- The pieces will be soggy, but don't worry. Turn up the heat, add a little more oil if needed, and quickly re-brown on both sides, uncovered, until very crispy.
- Remove chicken pieces to paper towels while making gravy.
- Pour out all oil from skillet except for about 1/4 cup. Loosen any crusty bits with a heavy spoon. Add 1/4 cup flour and stir until blended. Pour in the milk, a little at a time, stirring constantly with a wire whisk over medium-high heat. When gravy starts to get thick and bubble, lower heat and let simmer no more than 2 minutes. Salt & pepper to taste, if needed.
