YUMMY! I JUST made this for dinner and it was a huge hit with the kids. My 11 yr. old is a SUPER picky eater and she loves this :) THANK YOU! I did add some Mrs. Dash (for chicken) as I was afraid this may be a little plain. It was just right :)

This is a really great recipe for oven fried chicken. I'd suggest brining the chicken pieces in a simple salt bath over night before using this recipe. Also use more paprika its what adds color to the breading. :D

A great simple recipe. Way to go Allison. Don't let the "know it alls" who didn't even try the recipe discourage you from trying new things and letting everyone know how it came out. I'm happy for your success with it.

People are so quick to judge. I think handling raw meat is disgusting but I do it for my family...otherwise I wouldn't touch it. And just because someone hasn't cooked with raw meat before doesn't meant they haven't been cooking! I was looking for an approx time & temp to cook chicken legs & found this recipe. I had marinated this chicken in Newmans light Italian dressing. I skipped the butter & flour & seasoned with sea salt, paprika & pepper. Loved by my husband & Daughters. Thank you!
