KITTENCAL'S ASIAN-GLAZED BAKED CHICKEN
The soy sauce has a slightly dominent flavor to this glaze so if you are not a lover of soy sauce then pass this by, or you may use 1/2 cup soy sauce and 1/4 cup water --- depending on how sweet you want this sauce you may adjust the honey or brown sugar to suit taste, start with stated amounts and add in more if desired ---you may also adjust the chili flakes to suit heat level, if you are in a hurry you could omit browning the chicken firstly --- serve with cooked rice.

Steps:
- Whisk the vinegar, honey, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, garlic, and salt in a bowl until smooth. Pour half the marinade into a large plastic zipper bag; retain the other half of the sauce. Place the chicken thighs into the bag containing marinade, squeeze all the air out of the bag, and seal. Shake a few times to coat chicken; refrigerate for 1 hour, turning bag once or twice.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Pour the other half of the marinade into a saucepan over medium heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, to thicken sauce. Remove the chicken from the bag; discard used marinade. Place chicken thighs into a 9x13-inch baking dish, and brush with 1/3 of the thickened marinade from the saucepan.
- Bake 30 minutes, basting one more time after 10 minutes; an instant-read thermometer inserted into a chicken thigh should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). Let stand for 5 or 10 minutes; meanwhile, bring remaining marinade back to a boil for 1 or 2 minutes, and serve chicken with marinade. Sprinkle with green onions.

KITTENCAL'S CRISPY COATING MIX FOR MOIST OVEN BAKED CHICKEN
I developed this coating recipe years ago, it makes the most wonderful crispy moist oven-baked chicken you will ever have, I always serve this chicken with recipe #145064 on the side to drizzle over the chicken *SO* good! Make certain to purchase and use only the already crushed boxed cornflake crumbs for this, and use only Shake and Bake Southern Fried flavor, I have tried many other flavors and brands and they are just not as good! The chicken will cook even more after you remove it from the oven and let it sit, so I like to bake mine for only about 40 minutes, and leave it on top of the stove until ready to serve, I find that it is even moister this way!

Steps:
- Wash chicken pieces in cold water (leave the chicken moist so the coating will hold on to it) set aside.
- In the plastic mixing bag that comes with the coating mix, combine all ingredients (except the chicken pieces) and shake bag to combine thoroughly.
- Set oven to 425°F.
- Set oven rack to lowest-bottom position.
- Line a large 15-inch baking sheet with foil, and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Shake each piece of chicken in the bag to coat thoroughly with mixture and place on the baking sheet.
- Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.
- Bake for 45 minutes (you might have to bake for about 5 minutes more if the backs are attached to the legs).
- *NOTE* Sometimes if you are using frozen defrosted chicken there might still be some water left in the chicken that will come out when baking, if you find that there is a lot of water in your pan about halfway through baking, just carefully remove the pan with a towel or oven mitts and hold over the sink to drain the water, and place back in the oven to bake (just enough to drain, careful not to remove the chicken from the pan and throw into the sink!).
- The less water in the bottom of the pan the crispier you chicken will be).

KITTENCAL'S GRILLED CHICKEN CAESAR SALAD
For ease I have listed bagged lettuce, all ingredient amounts may be adjusted, this recipe will yield four if you are serving more then double amounts, once the chicken is cooked and the dressing is made this takes little time to put together, I strongly suggest to use my dressing from recipe#116849 --- prep time does not include grilling the chicken ----your family and/or guests will be licking their plate clean!

Steps:
- Season the chicken breasts as desired (I use a little seasoned salt and garlic powder) grill until thoroughly cooked (about 12-15 minutes) remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes.
- Slice the breasts into about 1/2-inch slices.
- In a large bowl toss the lettuce with Parmesan cheese, red grape halves, onions and croutons.
- Add in the Caesar dressing and toss to coat (you may use more dressing to taste).
- Season with fresh ground black pepper if desired.
- Divide the salad between 4 serving bowls and top with sliced chicken.
- Delicious!
KITTENCAL'S CHICKEN CRESCENT ROLL CASSEROLE
This will also work great with turkey; if you do not have chicken breasts, then use any leftover cooked chicken. If desired you can fill the crescents just with the filling mixture and omit the soup, just brush with butter before baking. They are wonderful just stuffed with the filling! A few members have experienced a soggy bottom, so you might want to consider just drizzling half (or even a little less) of the soup mixture on top and a little around the sides of the crescents, then save the rest of the soup mixture for another time (this will help prevent a soggy bottom). You may use the jumbo crescent rolls and stuff with more chicken mixture :)

KITTENCAL'S EASY OVEN-BAKED BARBECUED CHICKEN
Really this is such an easy recipe I wasn't going to even bother posting it, I have been making this for years and when you can't barbecue outside this is the next best thing! --- Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce works really well or use your own favorite, I most always use my recipe#232433 and prepare the sauce a day ahead --- I did not list the amounts for the seasoned salt and garlic powder as I never measure but probably use about 2 teaspoons each for all the chicken pieces, I usually use about 2 cups sauce but a little more or less is fine -- boneless, skinless chicken breasts work well also but cooking time will need to be reduced, you will *love* this!

- Season the chicken with seasoned salt, garlic powder and black pepper.
- Turn skin-side up and season again.
- Cover the pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove from oven and carefully drain all fat from the pan.
- Pour the barbecue sauce over the chicken turning the pieces over to coat with the sauce (place skin-side up again in pan).

KITTENCAL'S MOIST CHEDDAR-GARLIC OVEN FRIED CHICKEN BREAST
This is for serious garlic lovers. The chicken bakes out so moist and tender! Grated cheese may be sprinkled on top of the breast the last 5 minutes of cooking if desired but that is optional. Double all ingredients for more than four breasts and adjust the amount of garlic to suit taste. For the coating amount you might be able to get away with 5 or maybe 6 very small chicken breasts, but I would suggest to increase the amount slightly --- to take this dish to yet another level, about 10 minutes before the cooking time is finished, drizzle the top of the chicken with a little pasta sauce, then sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top. Return to oven for about 10 minutes until the chicken is completely cooked and sauce is hot and cheese has melted. For a lemon-garlic flavor add in 3 tablespoons lemon juice to the melted butter/garlic mixture --- *NOTE* for a healthier alternative Smart Balance Butter Blend may be used in place of the melted butter --- you will love this chicken!

KITTENCAL'S CHICKEN SALAD
This is wonderful either scooped on a bed of lettuce, stuffed in between a pita or slices of whole wheat bread --- plan ahead the mixture needs to chill for 4 hours before serving, don't even bother tasting before that time, the grapes or chopped apple must be added in just before serving --- *note* see bottom of recipe for poaching chicken breasts, I also sometimes like to add in 1/2 teaspoon curry powder, but that is only optional, recipe may be doubled :)

Tips:
- Use a good quality soy sauce: A good quality soy sauce will make a big difference in the flavor of your chicken. Look for a soy sauce that is naturally brewed and has a deep, rich flavor.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the chicken dry and tough.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: Letting the chicken rest before serving allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.
- Serve with your favorite sides: This Asian-glazed baked chicken goes well with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, or steamed vegetables.
Conclusion:
This Asian-glazed baked chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet and sticky. Serve this chicken with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
