My Mom, then my father used a small cast iron pan just for rendering chicken skins to fat. Then used your recipe to make, pardon the spelling Gribenas?..Chicken cracklings fried with the aforementioned onions.. That smell takes me back to my childhood in an instant..
No wonder none of the men on my fathers side of the family made it past 60!!!
Guaranteed to clog every artery in your body.. but delish!!!
