I'm still a little confused about the measurement for the coating of flour. It does say 1/3 cup flour, but it also says, "divided." Then in the directions, it says to combine 2 tbsp flour and 2 tsp salt for the coating. In step 4 it says to combine remaining ingredients, which I assume means the 1/3 cup of flour, minus the 2 tbsp for the coating. How can 2 tbsp of flour be enough to coat 8 pieces of chicken, especially if you are coating both sides of the chicken? Thank you.

Hi there! The ingredient measurements are correct in this recipe. The first time that the chicken is coated, make sure that it is dry. The remaining flour will be used to ensure a thicker coat when baking. Enjoy!

I've fried alot of chicken in my time, usually coating it in a flour mixture of some kind. I'm not sure how you can coat 8 pieces of chicken in 2T. of flour. Maybe I'm reading the recipe wrong. I am going to try it. I'll get back to you with results. It sounds really good!
