Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken With Sage Gravy image

I got this recipe from Weight Watchers magazine. It is one of Jennifer Hudson's, WW spokesperson, favorite recipes. After trying it, I can see why. The cornflake crumbs really give it that wonderful crunch. I made mine without the gravy and it was still delicious! I also used all chicken breasts. So good, you won't believe it is good for you. Points Plus Value is 8.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth it. The chicken is so crispy and flavorful, and the gravy is the perfect finishing touch.

I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they turned out great. I also added a tablespoon of dried thyme to the gravy.

I'm not a fan of sage, so I omitted it from the gravy. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken didn't come out crispy at all. It was more like soggy fried chicken.

This recipe is a fail. The chicken was tough and the gravy was watery.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. The gravy was also bland.

The chicken was crispy and juicy, and the gravy was flavorful. I would have liked a bit more sage in the gravy, but overall it was a great recipe.

This fried chicken recipe is a keeper! The chicken came out crispy and juicy, and the sage gravy was the perfect complement. I served it with mashed potatoes and green beans, and my family loved it.
