Anyway, and more importantly, my smoke detector is just way too sensitive for frying. It goes off when I boil water. I think it would go into a panic and have alarms going of throughout the building if I tried to actually fry something. So, I have been looking for oven-fried chicken recipes for about a year now. I've finally got one that I actually like.
Oven-Fried Chicken
Ingredients:
1 lb chicken drumsticks, skin removed
1 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon seasoning salt (I used Lawry's)
1 tablespoon dried thyme
cooking spray
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 F
Combine buttermilk, Dijon mustard, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Place chicken in a gallon zip top bag.
Pour buttermilk mixture into zip top bag with chicken. Refrigerate and marinade 30 minutes to 8 hours.
In a shallow, wide dish (I used an 8x8 cake pan), combine flour, breadcrumbs, seasoning salt, and thyme.
Toss marinaded chicken in flour mixture until completely coated. Shake of excess flour mixture.
Grease a baking sheet very well, place a wire rack on top of it, grease it very well, and place drumsticks on rack. Spray each drumstick with cooking spray - it shouldn't be drenched, but the whole thing should look wet.
Bake 40-50 minutes, until chicken is completely cooked and juices run clear (165 F).
