Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

CHICKEN SPECTACULAR



Chicken Spectacular image

When I had a baby 12 years ago a lady at my church brought me this dish. It was so good I asked for the recipe. I've seen the recipe in The Cotton Country Collection and several other cookbook but have not seen it on Recipezaar. I like to cook the rice in the water saved from cooking the chicken. I think it adds to the flavor of the dish.

  • Cook the Chicken Thoroughly: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) for food safety and optimal juiciness.
  • Use a Quality Breading: Whether you prefer a crispy or tender coating, choose a breading that adheres well to the chicken and complements its flavor.

  • Drain the Chicken Well: After frying, place the chicken on a wire rack or paper towels to remove excess oil and ensure a crispy texture.
