Oven Fried Chicken

You'll want to soak the chicken in the milk for up to 24 hours if you can. You don't have to, but it makes for a nice moist chicken.


Oven Fried Chicken

3 lbs chicken, skin and fat removed if preferred

1 cup milk

1/2 c whole-wheat flour

1 T onion powder

1 t garlic powder

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 t salt

1/2 t poultry seasoning

1/4 t black pepper

1/4 t cayenne pepper


Preheat the oven to 350°. Place the chicken in a sturdy plastic bag or a bowl. Pour in the milk. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. After marinating, drain and discard the milk.

Combine the flour and seasonings in an empty bread bag. Shake to combine. Place 1 or 2 pieces of chicken in the bag. Shake to coat. Arrange the coated chicken in a 9 by 13-inch baking pan that has been coated with non-stick spray. Continue until all of the chicken is coated. Lightly spray the tops of the chicken with non-stick spray. Bake the chicken at 350° for an hour. Allow the chicken to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
