Fried chicken has always been one of my favorite foods, but since I began Weight Watchers it has been on my "stay away from" list. That is until now. I found a recipe for chicken that tastes fried, but is actually baked.
Southern Oven “Fried” Chicken
Makes 4 servings
5 points per serving
½ c. buttermilk
½ c. cornflakes, crushed
3 tbsp all purpose-flour
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground pepper
2 lb. Chicken parts with skin
4 tsp canola oil
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Spray a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Pour the buttermilk into a large shallow bowl. On a sheet of wax paper, combine the cornflake crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper. Dip the chicken in the buttermilk, then in the cornflake mixture, coating completely. Place the chicken on the baking sheet, drizzle with the oil. Bake 30 minutes, turn the chicken over, and continue to bake until cooked through, 15-20 minutes longer.
Cooking Tip: Don’t have buttermilk in the fridge? Combine 1 tsp of vinegar with ½ c. fat free milk for this recipe!
