Share:
Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cups of flour
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons seasoning salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup of margarine ( or butter!! it works!)
- 8 pieces of your choice of chicken, SKIN ON
Instructions
- Whisk together the first five ingredients in a medium sized bowl.
- Grease a baking sheet large enough for 8 pieces of chicken and set aside,
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl.
- Line up your bowls and your baking sheet in this order from right to left; egg, flour, then baking sheet.
- First, dip your chicken into the flour mixture and cover it completely.
- Dip it into the egg mixture, then into the flour mixture again for a second coat.
- Place on the baking sheet.
- Repeat with all chicken pieces.
- Place in fridge for half an hour.
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
- Melt the margarine ( or butter!) and drizzle evenly over the top of the chicken pieces.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the chicken reaches the appropriate temperature (165 for Breast meat, 180 for dark meat)
- Remove and serve!
Notes
- Nutrition facts are calculated using eight skin on baked chicken breasts, however you will want to mix and match eight pieces of drumsticks, thighs and breast pieces in this recipe.
- I USED to tell everyone not to use butter because it would burn. I LIED hahaha! Thank you to all my readers that tested this recipe over the past 8 years and have weighed in. Hey, I was a fledgling blogger, what did I know way back then? Heck, what do I even know now....
- MAKE SURE to let the chicken sit in the fridge for half an hour. This guarantees a crispy skin that doesn't fall off right away! This I have never, ever been wrong on and I will stick by my advice! This is the scientific magic that helps this be the best oven fried chicken ever!
- This recipe is probably the best one to make oven fried chicken breasts. Chicken breasts are my least favorite cuts of chicken to oven bake, to be honest. They dry out so easily. This recipe helps prevent chicken breasts from being too dry.
