How To Make sunday chicken dinner

• 
  Step 1
  Wash chicken in cold water, cut off any excess fat. Put in large bowl of enough salted water to cover and refrigerate overnight.
• 
  Step 2
  The next day, dry the chicken with paper towels and place on waxed paper. Cover all sides of the chicken with the seasoned flour.
• 
  Step 3
  In a large, deep skillet, heat the Crisco oil until just hot. Add chicken pieces, careful not to crowd too close together. Over medium-high heat, brown the chicken on both sides, uncovered, until almost as brown as you like it.
• 
  Step 4
  Reduce heat to low-medium, add a tablespoon of water, cover and simmer for about 40 minutes, or until tender when stuck with fork.
• Step 5
  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.
• Step 6
  Remove chicken pieces to paper towels while making gravy.
• Step 7
  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.
• 
  Step 8
  Spoon gravy over chicken and mashed potatoes. Mmmm, good!
