Oven Baked Kfc Kentucky Fried Chicken Recipes

KFC OVEN BAKED "FRIED" CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Combine the Spice Mix in a bowl.
• Place 1 tbsp of Spice Mix in a ziplock bag with the chicken and buttermilk. Set aside to marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably 3 but ideally overnight.

OVEN FRIED CHICKEN - IS IT KFC?

Steps:

• Start with trimming two skinless boneless chicken breasts. Try to use breasts of about the same size. If thick, flatten to 3/4 inch thick with a meat mallet or heavy pan.
• Mix 2 cups buttermilk or milk. The original recipe in the Tribune used an egg in the marinade. I no longer use it but you can if you want. Add the chicken and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375° convection or 400° conventional. Mix the 11 spices with the flour.
• Prepare an oven-safe pan with 2 teaspoons vegetable oil. Remove chicken breast one at a time, allowing the excess marinade to drain off. Dip in the spice/flour mix, cover completely, shake to remove excess, and on a rack.
• Allow to sit for 20-30 minutes. This will help the coating to stick. Give any of the coating on the breasts that looks dry a light spray of PAM and move into pan with melted butter.
• Bake until internal temp of 165°, about 35-40 minutes. Cooking time will vary some due to oven variations, the size, and thickness of the chicken, and the pan used.
• If you want gravy, remove chicken from pan. Mix 1 cup of chicken broth with 4 tablespoons flour either by whisking or in a shaker. Over medium-high heat, add 1 more cup of chicken broth to the pan and bring to a boil. Slowly add the flour mixture while whisking continuously until thickened and then a few more minutes. If some of the breading come off the chicken, leave it in the gravy for extra flavor.

Steps:

• Place the chicken parts with the skin on in a plastic bag and pour the buttermilk in to coat. Squeeze the air out of the bag and seal. Massage the chicken and buttermilk with your hands to coat evenly and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes minimum up to several hours.
• Preheat your oven to 425°F. In a medium sized bowl using a whisk, mix together the flour, Panko, baking powder and 11 herbs and spices. Set aside.
• Place a 13x9" baking dish in the oven to get hot for at least 15 minutes (See Note 2). While pan is heating up remove the chicken from the buttermilk, shaking off excess, and dredge in the seasoned flour mixture (See Note 3), coating on all sides with one hand.
• Add the melted butter to the heated baking dish and arrange the chicken pieces on top with plenty of room on each side so they "fry" not "steam".
• Bake for 12 minutes, uncovered. Turn the chicken pieces over and bake another 12 minutes or until internal temperature reads 165°F depending on the size of your chicken. (See Note 4) Remove from oven and allow to rest 5 minutes and then serve.
