Ingredients:

1  (3.5-lb.) fresh whole chicken, cut up
3/4 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp ground black pepper, divided
2 Tbs butter
1 Tbs vegetable oil
1 cup walnuts, toasted
10  clove garlic, peeled
1 cup water

Recipe for Fried Chicken with Garlic Walnut Sauce:

Season chicken with half the salt and half the pepper.
In a large skillet melt butter and oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until golden brown on all sides, about 15 minutes; adjust  heat as needed. Cover pan and continue
cooking over low heat for 20 minutes, or until chicken is done; transfer to another dish and hold warm.
Meanwhile, in a blender or food processor, finely grind together walnuts, garlic and remaining salt and pepper.
Pour off all but 4 tablespoons of pan drippings and heat to medium-high. Add walnut and garlic mixture and sauté for 1 minute, until just golden. Add water and simmer for 5
minutes. Return chicken to pan, turning to  coat evenly with sauce. Heat thoroughly before serving.
