Rather than buy those packaged flavored crumbs to bake your chicken or pork in, make up your own flavored breadcrumbs. This makes enough to season two chickens, cut into pieces. Mix it up ahead of time and keep in the pantry.
Oven Fried Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 cups dried breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp celery salt
- 1 tsp onion salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp poultry seasoning
Instructions
- Mix together the bread crumbs and seasoning. This makes enough to season two chickens so save half for another day.
- Place the mix in a paper bag or bowl. Moisten chicken parts with water, yogurt, or milk then cover with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Lay chicken pieces skin-side-up in a baking pan and bake at 350 for an hour.

Hi Christopher,
I typically cut a chicken into 10 pieces: 2 wings, 2 legs, 2 thighs, 2 breasts each cut into half.

yum!! yea, forget those boring crumbs that probably have so much unnecessary things added! thanks for sharing ๐

I’ve pretty much done it all ways. ๐ Usually I cut a whole chicken into the standard parts (breast, thigh, leg, wings) but I cut each half breast into half again, as it seems a more reasonable serving for family. I also have used boneless skinless chicken breasts or cutlets. See https://cheapcooking.com/chicken-parmesan for another variation.

Hi, my name is Christopher Prall and I have just started my own website for blogs and such. It’s still very new and needs quite some work still, so don’t be disappointed on the blandness of it :-). Anyway, I enjoy cooking in my spare time and always like looking for new ideas.
When you refer to the chicken as cutting it into pieces, are you meaning by parts or smaller pieces then that? Also, do you de-bone them or not?
It sounds tasty.
