Great hot from the oven or served cold for a picnic. I got a little poultry cookbook almost 15 years ago and found this gem inside, which I've adapted to make it a bit easier and fewer calories. My kids think this is a 5 star entree. You can mix several batches of the coating up ahead of time and store it in your cupboard to make the main dish a breeze! Ingredients:
1 cup crisp rice cereal |
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese |
1/4 cup blanched almond |
2 tablespoons parsley flakes |
1 teaspoon salt (optional) |
1/4 teaspoon crushed thyme |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
2 1/2-3 lbs chicken, cut into individual pieces |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Blend cereal in blender until fairly well crushed.
3. Add the next 7 ingredients.
4. Blend to mix.
5. Spray foil lined cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray (butter flavored is best). Spread chicken pieces on prepared cookie sheet. Spray chicken with non-stick cooking spray.
6. Pour blended coating into plastic or paper bag.
7. Drop chicken pieces two at a time into coating and shake to coat. Place back onto cookie sheet.
8. Bake at 375 degrees for 1 1/2 hours or until juices run clear.
