It’s Sunday and since the Senora de la Casa is from the American South, we’re having fried chicken.

The chicken legs and thighs are washed, patted dry then seasoned before being coated in flour. They’ll be carefully pan-fried in oil with a touch of bacon grease for flavor. Served with mashed potatoes, gravy and steamed green beans. For beverages, we have Panamanian lagers called Balboa Roja and ice water. (I’m drinking close to half a gallon of water every day down here!)

My best wishes to all for this week!
