Oven Fried Chicken

May 28, 2010

This is one of my old standby recipes. We call it “Mrs. Gleason chicken”  because that is who gave me the recipe about a hundred years ago. When my kids were small I would make chicken legs instead of thighs because that is what they liked then.

You’ll need:

  • six chicken legs and thighs skinned and trimmed of fat
  • milk for soaking the chicken
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 T crumbled Parsley flakes
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • veg. oil spray for the chicken

And so we begin…

Place chicken in shallow bowl, cover with milk.

Combine dry ingredients on a shallow plate. One by one, coat pieces on all sides. Place on cookie sheet covered in foil for easy clean up. Lightly spray chicken with veg-oil spray. Bake in preheated 375 over for about 45 minutes.

And voila! Dinner!
