When thoroughly combined, blend in flour, using your hands.
Keep mixing till most of the flour is blended with other ingredients and chicken is coated
Add more water or flour if mixture is too thin or too dry
(it should be dry but not powdery and not too wet - it has to adhere to the chicken).
Add enough fat (oil) to your skillet to come to a depth of about 1/2 inch and turn heat to medium.
(If you are using butter, skim any foam as it rises to the surface)
When the oil is hot raise heat to high.
Slowly add chicken pieces to skillet.
Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium (more or less - oil should sizzle but not smoke)
Cook for 7 minutes.
Uncovered skillet, turn chicken and continue to cook for another 7 minutes.
Turn chicken again and cook for about 5 minutes more ( turning as necessary to ensure that both sides are golden brown )
Remove chicken from skillet and drain on paper towels placed on newspaper
(for more absorption).
