Although true fried chicken is submerged in hot oil, this quick version uses just 2 tablespoons of oil yet produces tender chicken with a crispy brown surface.

Salt and pepper the cut up chicken.
Heat (on medium-high) 2 tablespoons canola oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chicken pieces in a single layer. When the oil is hot, add the chicken, skin side down, and cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes. Brown the other side. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook the chicken, turning occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until done.
Serve immediately, or remove to a warmed platter and deglaze the pan with 1/2 cup wine or broth, stirring to get up all the browned bits. Taste for seasoning, pour over chicken and serve.

"Love it and will make it, but cut recipe in half for two people. No breading, great for waistlines, and a gluten free husband. No deep oil, another plus for the waistline. This recipe is stellar."
