Recipe Inspiration
This easy Oven-Fried Chicken turns out perfectly crispy and juicy every time! The special seasoning blend tastes just like KFC, but it's made with wholesome ingredients in your own kitchen.
– 2 lbs chicken breasts (about 3-4) cut in strips — I get about 3 out of one breast – 1 cup buttermilk (optional) – 6 tbsp melted butter – ¾ cup flour – ½ cup Panko breadcrumbs – 1 tbsp seasoning salt I use Lawry’s – ½ tsp pepper – 2 tsp paprika
– Cut chicken breasts into thick strips and soak in buttermilk. – Preheat oven to 425°F. Place a large piece of parchment paper on the rimmed baking sheet (10×15) and brush butter over the parchment. It might seem like too much butter, but you need it to crisp up the coating!
– Combine flour, Panko, seasoning salt, paprika and pepper in a large zip-top bag.
– Add the chicken and shake to coat **For extra crispiness, do a double coat!
– Place your chicken on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a space between each strip. Bake 10 minutes, flip gently with a spatula, and bake another 10 minutes.
