CAJUN FRIED CHICKEN 
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
1/3 c. Tabasco sauce
1/4 c. water
1 broiler/fryer, cut into 8 pieces
1 c. self rising flour, unsifted
1 tsp. salt
1 to 1 1/2 c. vegetable oil for frying

Combine first 4 items in medium size bowl. Place chicken in bowl and turn to coat well. Combine flour and salt in a plastic bag. Shake chicken in seasoned flour to coat; shake off excess. Heat oil in a large skillet to 375 degrees. Fry chicken pieces, turning once, for 30 minutes or until chicken is browned. Drain on paper toweling. For a spicier version, pierce chicken with a fork. Marinate in pepper mixture for 1 hour or more, turning frequently.
