Who doesn’t love fried chicken? It’s certainly a favorite here in the south and goes perfectly with sweet tea and corn bread. It’s just that I wish it wasn’t fried. So, I took one of my go-to recipes for chicken tenders and decided to slap it on some drumsticks and thighs too. Let’s just say…my family went bonkers. Let me share it with you, so you and your family can react the same way. It’s crispy + juicy and downright delicious.
CRIPSY OVEN FRIED CHICKEN

- 6 chicken boneless thighs, with skin
- 6 chicken drumsticks, with skin

- 3 cups panko bread crumbs
- 1 cup cheese, grated or shaved
- salt + pepper to taste
- 4 eggs, beaten or you can use egg whites instead
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Using 3 shallow bowls or one of these nifty breading trays.
- Fill one with flour, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika. Mix well.
- Beat eggs and pour into second bowl.
- In the last bowl mix parmesean and panko, salt & pepper to taste.

- Bake in your preheated 400° oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal tempature chicken has reached 165°

When you say “place covered chicken pieces on the parchment lines sheet” what are you covering them with? Another pan? More parchment?
Yes, these great precut parachment liners they sell. Game changer!
