Zubereitung von Lemon Fried Chicken
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 2 tablespoons lemon juice.
- Dip each chicken piece (about 2 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and drumsticks) in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Carefully place chicken pieces in the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd. Brown on both sides for about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
- Remove from oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley (optional).
