Higgy's Oven-Crisp Chicken

Amount	Ingredient
1 (3 1/2 pound)	chicken, cut up, or chicken parts, 3 breasts, 3 thighs, 3 drumsticks
1 cup	plain yogurt
1 large clove	garlic, pressed
1 tablespoon	hot pepper sauce (Tabasco)
2/3 cup	all-purpose flour
1/3 cup	cornmeal
1 tablespoon	paprika
1 teaspoon	salt
1 teaspoon	black pepper
1 teaspoon	red pepper (cayenne)

Preparation Tips:

1. Rinse chicken. Pat dry with paper towels. Trim off any excess fat.
2. In a large flat dish, combine yogurt, garlic and Tabasco. Lay chicken in mixture, coating well. Marinate for 1 hour at room temperature.
3. In a shallow dish, combine the flour, cornmeal, paprika, salt, and black and red pepper. Roll the chicken pieces in the breading mixture, covering all sides.
4. In a large roaster, generously oiled (with 1 1/2 tablespoons excess in bottom) place the chicken, meat side down.
5. Bake at 425 degrees to 450 degrees for 35 minutes. Turn carefully with spatula (so you don't lose the crust) after 20 minutes.
