Ingredients
- ½ cup fat-free milk or buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1 cup cornflakes, crumbled
- 1 ½ tablespoons onion powder
- 1 ½ tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 ½ teaspoons black pepper
- 2 teaspoons dried hot pepper, crushed
- 1 teaspoon ginger, ground
- 8 pieces chicken, skinless (4 breasts, 4 drumsticks)
- A few shakes paprika
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F.
- Add ½ teaspoon of poultry seasoning to milk.
- Combine all other spices with cornflake crumbs, and place in plastic bag.
- Wash chicken and pat dry. Dip chicken into milk and shake to remove excess. Quickly shake in bag with seasonings and crumbs, and remove the chicken from the bag.
- Refrigerate chicken for 1 hour.
- Remove chicken from refrigerator and sprinkle lightly with paprika for color.
- Space chicken evenly on greased baking pan.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for another 30-40 minutes or until meat can easily be pulled away from the bone with fork. Drumsticks may require less baking time than breasts. Crumbs will form crispy "skin."
Note: Do not turn chicken during baking.
