Instructions

  1. Clean the pullet, blanch a minute in boiling water, and cut it into pieces at the joints.
  2. Flour the pieces, season, and steep in two beaten eggs for at least half an hour.
  3. Coat in breadcrumbs (twice if needed) and brown on both sides in oil or virgin lard over moderate heat until cooked through.
  4. Serve hot with lemon wedges; a turkey wing may be used the same way.
