Baked Fried Chicken
For those of you who like fried chicken but don't want to call it that, I've got a little answer for ya. Butter, batter, and oil? Check. But not like you would imagine: I used these 3 simple ingredients - garlic herb butter, one egg (that happened to be free range...Food Snob Alert!!), and cornmeal. I simply whipped those ingredients together with a little salt and pepper and onion powder, and then dipped each of the chicken breasts in the mixture. I placed the chicken in a pre-olive oiled baking pan and popped it in the oven for about 35 minutes at 375 degrees.
Voila! A deliciously coated, crispy, but altogether not heavy, "fried" (but more baked) chicken. The leftovers reheated nicely, just with a softer surface. Reheated, it was like chicken with cornbread crumbles. And what, pray tell, could be wrong with that??
