Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 chicken, 3.5 - 4 pounds, quartered with backbone removed
Salt and pepper
1.5 cups vegetable oil
2 large potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic
3 Tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken and pat dry. Liberally season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large heavy skillet or pot. When hot, fry chicken skin up for about 10 minutes. Turn and fry 10 minutes on the other side. Chicken should be browned and juices should run clean when pierced with a fork. Remove chicken from skillet. Let it drain first on a wire rack and transfer onto a large platter. With oil still hot, fry potatoes until browned and crisp. Drain and place around chicken on the platter. Place garlic in a small strainer and dip into the hot oil for about 30 seconds. Remove and mix with parsley. Sprinkle garlic parsley over chicken and serve.
