Makes 6 serving(s)

+ Ingredients

1/2 C skim milk or buttermilk

1 tsp poultry seasoning

1 C cornflakes, crumbled

1 1/2 Tbsp onion powder

1 1/2 Tbsp garlic powder

2 tsp black pepper

1 tsp dried hot pepper, crushed

8 pieces chicken, skinless (4 breasts, 4 drumsticks)

a few shakes of paprika

1 tsp vegetable oil

+ Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350F

2. Add 1/2 tsp of poultry seasoning to milk

3. Combine all other spices with cornflake crumbs and place in plastic bag

4. Wash chicken and pat dry. Dip chicken into milk, shake to remove excess, then quickly shake in bag with seasoning and crumbs

5. Refrigerate for 1 hour

6. Remove from refrigerator and sprinkle lightly with paprika for color

7. Evenly space chicken on greased baking pan

8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for an added 30-40 minutes or until meat can be easily pulled away from the bone with fork. Drumsticks may require less baking time than breasts. (Do not turn chicken during baking.) Crumbs will form crispy "skin."
