Fried chicken makes a great game day meal.  For a unique twist on typical fried chicken, this recipe was inspired by the Deb's Personal Choice chicken entree at the CD Cafe in Solomons, MD

Apple Fried Chicken
1 whole chicken (3-4 pounds), cut into pieces
4 cups apple schnapps
salt and pepper to taste
2.5 cups all purpose flour
2.5 cups cornmeal
2/3 cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Marinate chicken overnight in apple schnapps. After marinating, season chicken with salt and pepper.  In a shallow dish, combine flour, cornmeal, pecans and garlic. Dredge chicken in flour mixture until completely coated.  Fill a large, heavy skillet with oil to a depth of one inch. Heat over medium-high heat.  Fry chicken for at least 5 minutes per side, until no longer pink and juices run clear.  Serve with apple onion salad.

Apple Onion Salad
2 large apples, thinly sliced
1 large sweet onion, sliced
1/4 cup butter

In a skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add apples and onions and stir occasionally for four minutes. Reduce heat to medium and cook uncovered for twenty minutes, until mixture is golden brown and carmelized.  Mixture can be eaten alone, or served over salad greens for a side salad.

For another great chicken recipe, try this beer chicken pizza.
