  1. .... or so it would seem. Completely uninspired to make dinner,
    I wandered around the store, what to make. Decided on a cut up
    chicken to make oven fried. How easy is that?

    Well, after melting the butter/shortening in the pan, I took it
    out of the oven to add the chicken. Somewhere between then
    and putting the pan back into the oven, my brain forgot that it
    was hot. Put it back barehanded, a glass pan that had been in a
    425 oven for probably 15 minutes.

    Bad enough I barely had fingerprints before, now they're just
    flat burnt. Ouch! I got it in ... but I bet if it was a metal pan, I'd
    be in the emergency room right now. Dummy head. All 10 fingers.

    As an aside, all that chicken cooked up in record time, maybe
    40 minutes. First time I've made this where I took the temp, I
    guess I've been overcooking it all those other times. Never seemed
    to be overdone.

    Ah, but now you can go rob that jewelry store you've been eyeing for the
    last 10 years. I know you don't like to wear much jewelry, that's what
    Louie down at the pizza parlor is for LOL And oh, not thick crust pizza.

    I usually bake my fingerprints - er, I mean, my chicken - about 40-45
    minutes at 425F. Nice crispy outside and done but still moist inside. So,
    despite the fact the Law & Order folks can't identify you, you made some
    good chicken 🙂

    (laugh) It was just stupid. I'm asleep on my feet (or butt) and I'm
    easily distracted anyway. Dumb thing to do.

    (smile) It was good. I just always followed the recipe guideline, half
    hour skin side down, flip, half hour more. Wasn't all dried out or
    anything,
    before. Live and learn, and make a note in the cookbook. Glad I checked.

    Actually a glass pan burns twice as badly as metal... the exterior of a
    metal pan would be no hotter than the chicken juices inside the pan,
    probably slightly less than 212º F. The exterior of a glass pan would
    be slightly cooler than the 425ºF oven setting.

    Long ago and far away when I was doing mass cooking I was able to
    easily handle aluminum pans directly from the oven, bare handed, no hot
    pads at all.... learned to grip above the food line and move quickly.

    I don't know why, I burn myself on metal pans just washing
    them if I don't pay attention how hot the water is. That wacky
    conductivity thing.

    Heh, I'm lucky I didn't fling the thing once the pain messages
    hit my brain. Anyway, I obviously didn't burn myself too badly
    or I wouldn't be typing ... and eating chocolate seems to have
    calming properties. As usual.

    I'm glad you're okay, even minor burns can be wicked.

    I think I burned mine off a few too many times (long story, the acid
    in books that have turned yellow, not a pretty sight) ... my fingerprints
    were already almost totally smooth, for years now. Don't laugh, I'm
    serious, makes it hard to count money, etc. No traction. (laugh)

    I've done that before. I'm a good cook, but still pretty dumb at
    times. Not to say you are... Bright side #1: The chicken was good.
    Bright side #2: The fingerprints will most likely grow back. (That's
    a bright side only if you aren't about to enter the cat burgler phase
    of your career.)

    Ouch! I hope your fingers get better soon.

    I've got a round scar on the pad of my right thumb where I cut a slice
    right off (I'm left handed). It was a small slice, but the scar's still
    pretty impressive.
