Ingredients:  
2 chickens, cut into pieces
2 cups lemon juice
2 cups flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup corn oil
2 T. Grated lemon zest
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 tsp lemon extract
2 lemons, sliced paper-thin
Directions:
Directions:
1. Combine chicken pieces and lemon juice in a bowl just large enough to hold them comfortably. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator overnight, turning occasionally.
2. Drain chicken thoroughly and pat dry. Fill a plastic bag with flour, salt, pepper, paprika and shake well to mix. Put 2 pieces of chicken into the bag at a time and shake, coating completely.
3. Preheat oven to 350º.
4. Heat corn oil in a frying pan or cast-iron Dutch oven until hot and fry chicken pieces, a few at a time, until well browned and crisp. This will take about 10 minutes each batch.
5. Arrange browned chicken in a single layer in a large baking pan. Sprinkle evenly with lemon zest and brown sugar. Mix chicken stock and lemon extract together and pour around chicken pieces. Set a thin lemon slide on top of each piece of chicken.
6. Bake chicken for 30-40 minutes, or until tender.
