George'S Crisp Crusted Oven-Fried Chicken By Judy- Jude - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (3 -4 lb) cut up whole chickens
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup instant potato flakes
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Wash chicken pieces and pat dry, set aside.
Beat egg and milk in a bowl.
In another bowl, mix potato flakes and the rest of the spices and parmesan cheese.
Melt butter in a shallow baking pan (13\"x9\"x2\").
Roll chicken first in egg mixture, then in the potato flake mixture.
Next roll coated chicken pieces in the butter as you place them into the pan (skin side up).
Bake at 400 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until juices from meat run clear when pierced with a fork.
Note: If you use garlic powder just be sure to add 1 teaspoon of salt; Judy used seasoned salt per her dad's little crib note on the recipe. I often use more spices to make it taste a little like Kentucky Fried Chicken. This recipe was written up pretty much as I had received it from Judy. Enjoy!
