Time 1h

Yield 1 loaf (16 slices).

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

3 to 3-1/2 cups (125 grams per cup) all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cups water (70° to 75°)

Steps:

In a large bowl, whisk 3 cups flour, yeast and salt. Stir in water and enough remaining flour to form a moist, shaggy dough. Do not knead. Cover and let rise in a cool place until doubled, 7-8 hours., Preheat oven to 450°; place a Dutch oven with lid onto center rack and heat for at least 30 minutes. Once Dutch oven is heated, turn dough onto a generously floured surface. Using a metal scraper or spatula, quickly shape into a round loaf. Gently place on top of a piece of parchment., Using a sharp knife, make a slash (1/4 in. deep) across top of loaf. Using the parchment, immediately lower bread into heated Dutch oven. Cover; bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until bread is deep golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped, 15-20 minutes longer, partially covering if browning too much. Remove loaf from pan and cool completely on wire rack.

Categories Low Cholesterol

Time 25m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon paprika
salt and pepper

Steps:

Combine ingredients and store in a sealable container or zipper topped plastic bag. This will keep up to 4 months in the pantry, depending on the humidity (you may just want to keep it in the freezer). This recipe will also double or triple well.
To Use: Preheat oven to 375°. Place one cup of mix in a plastic bag. In a bowl, mix an egg and 1/2 C skim milk.
Dip chicken pieces one at a time in the milk mixture, then shake one at a time in the plastic bag.
Place on a baking pan and bake for appropriate time (depending on the chicken you're using -as a little as 20 minutes or up to an hour for bigger, bone-in pieces).

Tips:

Use panko breadcrumbs for a crispier coating.
Add some grated Parmesan cheese to the breadcrumb mixture for extra flavor.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Homemade Shake and Bake chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that the whole family will enjoy. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a crispy, flavorful chicken dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual gathering.
