Steps:
- Prep: Heat the oven to 410°F (210°C). Place a dark-colored (or at the very least a silver metal) roasting pan (a rimmed baking sheet works as well) in the oven to heat up.
- Prepare breading: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and the milk. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, breadcrumbs, baking powder and seasoning together.
- Bread the chicken: Toss the chicken pieces in the flour, coating evenly and shaking off any extra flour. Next, toss the chicken pieces in the egg mixtures. Then, dip each into the flour mix again, this time coating very well - press the breading well on the chicken to make it stick.
- Place chicken on pan: Take the baking pan out of the oven and melt the butter on it. Place the coated chicken pieces on the tray - leave enough space in between, I usually bake it in two batches.
- Oven fry: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). Finish by broiling the chicken until it turns golden brown and crispy.

Tips:
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to perfection. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
- For extra crispy skin, allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
- To make a healthier version of this recipe, you can use skinless, boneless chicken breasts. You can also reduce the amount of oil used by spraying the chicken with cooking spray instead of brushing it with oil.
Conclusion:
This crispy juicy oven-fried chicken breasts recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. The chicken is coated in a flavorful breadcrumb mixture and then baked in the oven until golden brown and crispy. The result is a juicy, tender, and flavorful chicken dish that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy chicken recipe, give this one a try!
