"Fried" Chicken

So for tonight's feast we are having "fried" chicken, which is actually baked, but they'll never know the difference. It is really simple.

"Fried" Chicken

Things you'll need:

5 lbs of chicken
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp hot sauce/pepper sauce
2 cups bread crumbs
1 cup corn flakes, crushed
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
salt and pepper, to taste


  • Preheat the oven to 400
  • Wash the chicken in cold water and pat dry
  • In a medium size bowl, beat the eggs and add the hot sauce, blending well
  • In another bowl combine bread crumbs, corn flakes and spices, and mix
  • Dip the chicken in the egg
  • Then coat well in the breading mixture
  • Place the chicken on a wire cooling rack over a cookie sheet or a 9 x 13
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flip, and bake for another 15 minutes, until a beautiful golden brown
I know 5 lbs of chicken is a lot, so feel free to cut the recipe. But let's be honest, if you're going to be having "Fried" Chicken, you're gonna want to invite your friends over. And if you wind up having leftover chicken and you don't know what to do with it, pull it from the bone, chop it, and make some delicious chicken salad. It's that much better because the chicken is already deliciously seasoned.
