Categories     Chicken     Bake     Quick & Easy     Dinner

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 oz. can of French's French Fried Onions
2 tbsp flour
boneless chicken breasts
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • Crush onion rings and flour in a plastic bag, dip chicken into egg; then coat in onion crumbs. Place on baking sheet and cook 20 min. at 400 .

Tips:

  • For perfectly crispy chicken, make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken. The oil should be shimmering and about 350°F (175°C).

  • For extra crispy chicken, double-coat the chicken in the flour mixture.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
