Oven Fried Chicken With Creamy Gravy

---

If desired you could omit oven baking and completely fry the chicken pieces in oil, increase oil to 3 cups for this, fry turning occasionally for about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. one 3-1/2 to 4-pound chicken cut up can be used instead of the chicken thighs or use all breasts, i prefer to use all the same so the chicken cooks at the same time. *note* if you wanted to take this chicken to a whole new level then brine in recipe#168990 for 24 hours, rinse the chicken thoroughly and completely under cold water, then continue with the recipe as stated, if you are using skin on chicken breasts i would highly recommend using the brine ;-)
