CORNMEAL OVEN FRIED CHICKEN



Cornmeal Oven Fried Chicken image

This Cornmeal Oven Fried Chicken gets SO crispy, all without deep frying! The ultimate comfort food made healthier.

Provided by Nora from Savory Nothings

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large egg
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 cup all purpose flour
4 tablespoons coarse cornmeal
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons ground paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
2 pounds skinless boneless chicken breast (cut into pieces (I do 3-4 per breast))
1/4 cup butter

Steps:

  • Prep: Preheat the oven to 410°F. Place a dark-colored baking sheet or pan in the oven to heat up (you want it to get really hot).
  • Make egg mix: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and the buttermilk.
  • Make dry mix: In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and seasoning together.
  • Coat chicken: Dip the chicken pieces in the flour, coating evenly and shaking off any extra flour. Next, coat the chicken pieces in the egg mixtures. Then, dip them into the flour again, this time coating very well.
  • Put chicken on pan: Take the baking tray out of the oven and melt the butter on it. Place the coated chicken pieces on the tray. Make sure there's butter underneath every chicken piece, or it will stick! Add more butter if it's not enough to cover your pan!
  • Bake chicken: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). IF THE CHICKEN STICKS: Do NOT just flip it! Use a spatula to carefully loosen it from the pan, then flip. Otherwise the breading will fall off. Finish by broiling the chicken until it turns golden brown and crispy.

CORNFLAKE CHICKEN



Cornflake Chicken image

Baked instead of fried, this Cornflake Chicken is crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and so incredibly flavorful!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dinner

Time 42m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3-4 lbs. bone-in chicken pieces, skin removed ((I use a combination of 4 drumsticks and 4 thighs or 8 thighs))
⅓ cup mayonnaise
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon seasoned salt (such as Lawry's brand)
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups crushed Corn Flakes cereal ((about 5 cups measured before crushing))

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425° F. Place a rack on top of a large rimmed baking sheet that has been lined with aluminum foil. Spray rack with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, salt, seasoned salt and garlic powder. Remove skin from chicken, pat dry, and season the meat liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Brush chicken pieces with the mayonnaise mixture. Coat chicken with crushed Corn Flakes, pressing gently to help adhere.
  • Arrange chicken on prepared baking sheet. Bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165° F. If you're using bone-in chicken breasts, you will need to bake them for longer since those are larger pieces of meat. If the crumb coating starts to get too dark while the chicken is roasting, just tent loosely with foil.
