Baked Fried Chicken

I was so excited when I realized this recipe didn't call for any deep frying - although we all know that can taste mighty delicious - but was baked in the oven! It quickly became one of my favorite recipes and tastes just like KFC, but far better. Thank you Amy Lindstrom from Your Life Uncommon for sharing this hearty recipe! She nailed it right on - baked instead of fried and you don't have to deal with the seasoning on the skin, which we all pull off anyway! You can enjoy all the flavors this recipe has to offer without worry about it being unhealthy. Enjoy!





Place thawed chicken breast tenderloin strips in a bowl of milk. Let soak for 20-30 min.

Mix a gallon size ziploc or large bowl:

1/2 tsp. Salt
1 Tablespoon Season All
3/4 tsp Pepper
1 cup Flour
2 tsp. Paprika


Preheat oven to 400° F. Cut 1/2 stick of butter into a few pieces and place in a 9 x 13 in pan. Melt butter in preheated oven.
Spread melted butter around the bottom of the pan. Lightly spray the pan, if needed, to make sure that there are no dry spots.
Shake excess milk off of chicken and completely coat each piece with the seasoning mix. You can either shake the chicken in the bag, until coated, or dip each piece in the bowl until coated.
Place each piece of chicken in the pan.
Cook for 20 min. Turn each piece of chicken and continue cooking for 20 more minutes, or until cooked through.
