Fried Chicken

Todays flashback dinner is from my childhood. We ate a lot of chicken because 40 years ago it was only about 10 cent a pound so it was a very economical way to feed the family. It still can be a cheap dinner.  A dinner recipe of Fried Chicken but made into adult form. Fried Chicken just like grandma made except it is oven fried which is better for your health. This chicken had amazing crunch and flavor you should try it.




History of how the chicken conquered the world





Fried Chicken














I used drumsticks but any parts of the chicken will be fine. I seasoned the drumsticks with all kinds of things. You can use whatever you like.



Pre heat oven at 375 Degrees



I have a container with 2 eggs or 1 Cup of egg substitute, yogurt or sour cream. All will work to adhere the flour mixture to the chicken. I will add to the mixture some hot sauce or soy sauce or any other liquid to add extra flavor.





I put together some crunch for the outside of the chicken. I put into a container flour, cornmeal, cornflakes and a crushed up high fiber cereal. About 2 cups will be fine. I then put a package of dry ranch dressing mix in and add seasoning and parmesan cheese. Remember chicken can be really plain so make sure to use lots of seasoning if you like it tasty.



Roll each piece of chicken in the egg or wet mixture and then in the flour batter mixture. Then lay on a nonstick sprayed pan.



Put in oven to bake. After 25 minutes flip the chicken and bake another 25 minutes or until done. (170 degree internal temp)





Enjoy
