GEORGE'S CRISP CRUSTED OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN BY JUDY- JUDE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Wash chicken pieces and pat dry, set aside.
• Beat egg and milk in a bowl.
• In another bowl, mix potato flakes and the rest of the spices and parmesan cheese.
• Melt butter in a shallow baking pan (13"x9"x2").
• Roll chicken first in egg mixture, then in the potato flake mixture.
• Next roll coated chicken pieces in the butter as you place them into the pan (skin side up).
• Bake at 400 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until juices from meat run clear when pierced with a fork.
• Note: If you use garlic powder just be sure to add 1 teaspoon of salt; Judy used seasoned salt per her dad's little crib note on the recipe. I often use more spices to make it taste a little like Kentucky Fried Chicken. This recipe was written up pretty much as I had received it from Judy. Enjoy!

CRISPY BAKED 'FRIED' CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a rack in a roasting pan or on a baking sheet.
• Rinse the chicken in cold water; pat dry. In a wide bowl or on a plate, season the flour with salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dredge each chicken piece through the flour so it's fully coated, tap against the bowl to shake off excess flour and set aside. Discard the flour.
• Here comes the part kids like best: Crush the cornflakes by placing them in a big resealable plastic bag, carefully pressing the bag to push out the air. Seal up the bag (with as little air inside as possible) and run over the flakes with a rolling pin. Open the bag and pour the crushed flakes into a wide bowl or onto a plate.
• In a large bowl (big enough to dredge the chicken pieces), mix the buttermilk, mustard, cayenne pepper, paprika and sage. Give each floured chicken piece a good buttermilk bath and then roll in the cornflake crumbs.
• Arrange the chicken pieces on the rack and place in the hot oven. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, lower the heat to 375 degrees and cook for another 25 to 30 minutes, until cooked through and crispy. The juices should run clear when the meat is pierced with a knife. Serve with Easy Greens.
