Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees; place rack in jellyroll pan.
• In medium bowl, beat egg with milk; reserve.
• In separate shallow bowl, mix cornmeal, flour, seasonings, salt and pepper; reserve.
• Add enough oil to large, deep skillet to come up 1 inch; heat to 350 degrees on deep-frying thermometer.
• Meanwhile, coat chicken pieces with egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then coat with cornmeal mixture; place on sheet of wax paper.
• Fry chicken in batches, turning once, until golden, 3-4 minutes per side.
• Drain on paper towels; transfer to rack in jellyroll plan.
• Bake until chicken is no longer pink near bone, about 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Wash the chicken and in large saucepan. Cover the chicken with slightly salted water and bring to a boil. After it boils, reduce the heat and cover and simmer for 20 minutes. (the boiling is done to almost cook the chicken so the cornmeal does not burn).
• Drain the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.

• Heat oil for frying to 365°F.

• Carefully remove and drain on paper towels, or paper bag.
• Keep warm while frying the remaining chicken.

Steps:

• Trim the chickens of as much obvious fat as possible.
• In a large shallow pan, stir together the lemon juice, kosher salt and hot sauce. Add the chicken pieces to the mixture and marinate, refrigerated, for at least two hours. Turn the chicken at least three times during the marination.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
• In a doubled-up, large paper bag, mix together the cornmeal and salt. Put three or four pieces of chicken in the bag and shake until they are completely coated. Remove to a platter and continue until all the pieces are coated. Shake off excess cornmeal.
• In a large, oblong, deep roasting pan, pour in a half inch of vegetable oil. Put the pan in the preheated oven. After about 15 minutes, when the oil is hot, use tongs to gently place the chicken pieces in the pan, being careful not to crowd them. Cook on one side, about 15 to 20 minutes. Then turn on the other side and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes. Make sure that the chicken is thoroughly cooked. Repeat this step, frying batches, until all the chicken is cooked.
• Transfer the chicken to a large platter and keep warm in a 250-degree oven. Before serving, sprinkle with fresh, chopped marjoram. Decorate the platter with sprigs of rosemary and thin slices of lemon.
