Kittencals Crispy Garlic Baked Chicken Recipes

KITTENCAL'S EASY OVEN-BAKED BARBECUED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (set oven rack to bottom position).
• Grease a jelly-roll pan (it is best to cook the chicken on a rack that fits in the jelly-roll pan, if you do not have a rack then just sit the chicken in the pan).
• Pat chicken dry using paper towels, then place skin-side down on the jelly-roll pan.
• Season the chicken with seasoned salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
• Turn skin-side up and season again.
• Cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
• Remove from oven and carefully drain all fat from the pan.
• Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken turning the pieces over to coat with the sauce (place skin-side up again in pan).
• Return to oven UNCOVERED and bake for about 30 minutes more or until if cooked through.

KITTENCAL'S CRISPY GARLIC BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Set oven rack to lowest position.
• Grease a small baking sheet.
• In a shallow bowl combine melted butter with 1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder and (if using) 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard.
• In another bowl combine all breading ingredients (remove about half to another small bowl to add in as needed).
• Dip the breast into the melted butter turning a few times to coat generously, then coat in the breading mixture pressing down firmly with hands to adhere the coating to the breast (you may need to turn the chicken breast a few time to coat well).
• Place on baking sheet.
• Continue with remaining chicken adding in more breading to the bowl as needed to coat the chicken.
• Bake for about 35-40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

KITTENCAL'S CRISPY COATING MIX FOR MOIST OVEN BAKED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Wash chicken pieces in cold water (leave the chicken moist so the coating will hold on to it) set aside.
• In the plastic mixing bag that comes with the coating mix, combine all ingredients (except the chicken pieces) and shake bag to combine thoroughly.
• Set oven to 425°F.
• Set oven rack to lowest-bottom position.
• Line a large 15-inch baking sheet with foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
• Shake each piece of chicken in the bag to coat thoroughly with mixture and place on the baking sheet.
• Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
• Bake for 45 minutes (you might have to bake for about 5 minutes more if the backs are attached to the legs).
• *NOTE* Sometimes if you are using frozen defrosted chicken there might still be some water left in the chicken that will come out when baking, if you find that there is a lot of water in your pan about halfway through baking, just carefully remove the pan with a towel or oven mitts and hold over the sink to drain the water, and place back in the oven to bake (just enough to drain, careful not to remove the chicken from the pan and throw into the sink!).
• The less water in the bottom of the pan the crispier you chicken will be).

• Remove cooked chicken from the oven and transfer to a shallow dish. Pour the sauce over top and toss until all chicken pieces are well coated.
