Anyone have a good recipe for baked "fried" chicken?

Here is one, I posted this about 2 yrs ago, hope you like it smileys/smile.gif

OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN


PREHEAT OVEN 450◦

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
½ cup mayonnaise (can be fat-free)
¼ teaspoon salt (can eliminate)
½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
¼ teaspoon red pepper
¼ teaspoon celery salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon of dill
1 TABLESPOON dehydrated onions (*optional)
4 to 8 skinned and boned chicken breast halves

Step 1

On a plate, stir together breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Step 2

On a second plate, add mayonnaise. Add spices to the mayonnaise and mix together.

Step 3

Grease 13 x 9 baking dish with vegetable spray, set aside, or... use a cookie sheet covered in aluminum foil ~ I prefer this

Step 4

Dip chicken breast into the mayonnaise mixture, then dredge the mayonnaise coated chicken breast in the bread crumb mixture, then place in greased baking dish. Repeat until all chicken is done.

NOTE: do not over coat the chicken in bread crumb mixture; over coating does not make the chicken taste good. Lightly coat the chicken with the bread crumb mixture. Can shake chicken very slightly after dipping into bread crumb mixture... but lightly coat entire chicken breast evenly.

Step 5

(optional) Sprinkle dehydrated onions over prepared chicken breasts. Can use more or less of the 1 tablespoon of the dehydrated onions.

NOTE: Though it is optional to use dehydrated onions, it does enhance the flavor of the southern oven-fried chicken.

Step 6

Bake @ 450◦ for 20 minutes or until chicken is done, golden on top; onions may be blackened

Whisk milk mixture into the sautéing onions and mushrooms. Taste and add
bouillon cube, if desired (You may want to use additional milk if you do).
Boil until thickened to preferred consistency. Put into a gravy dish and
serve alongside the baked chicken.

Comments: When cooking for my college roommates years ago, I discovered that
although tuna-fish casserole is consumed in millions of households, love of
mother's own must be imprinted during infantile nurturing. As my friends
summarily banished all my childhood favorites, I concluded that a hankering
for mother's recipes could be used to distinguish genuine family from
interlopers (call it genetic tasting). But I soon forgot the recipes. So, it
took a call to Pam Ross, my sister and sole surviving mother in our clan, to
retrieve this cholesterol-boosting pleaser from our Mom. My nieces like it,
and it doesn't wear out the cook. Pam serves it with garlic mashed potatoes.

Another really good one from Epi...Spicy Oven-Fried Chicken

The only time this didn't turn out well, I used the chicken breasts that have been soaked in a salt solution, such as the ones in the 6 lb pack from Sam's. They came out with a bad texture, I think because the buttermilk brine on top of the salt solution they're treated with was just too much.

a TIP that I read & tried was to toast the bread crumbs (specifically panko) ahead of time which ...

provided more crunch & boosted flavor. I did it on fish,

 
WOW! I didn't know panko could get MORE crunchy... you must have good teeth smileys/smile.gif

 
I am a panko convert..I don't use breadcrumbs on my chicken cutlets any longer and...

something else I do is add grated parmasean cheese to the panko. Not only is it very crispy but panko absorbs less oil.
