Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Bright cabbage slaw; Classic Southern slaw; Light and flaky buttermilk biscuits

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    The method for frying the chicken was great: it came out crunchy on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside: perfectly cooked. However I found the oil brushed on at the end to bring way too much sweetness: the spiciness and smokiness was lost in the sugar, which was all I could taste in the end. Next time would use less sugar and more paprika/pepper.
