Expert Tips

Seasoned potato flakes add a crisp coating to this baked chicken.

This baked chicken comes out deep golden brown and crispy, just like fried chicken. Since the chicken is baked however, clean-up is quick and there's no oil spatter or lingering order.

Skinless chicken pieces work well in this recipe.

Potato salad, buttered baby peas and biscuits or cornbread make your chicken dinner complete.

We enjoyed this chicken very much. I used boneless skinless chicken breasts, my kids don't like bones. I ended up with 12 pieces which was very lucky for me because everyone ate it up. i was lucky to get a piece. The only thing I might change for next time is to flip the chicken half way through, the bottoms were not very crunchy and a few were borderline soggy. Otherwise I will definately mae this again.
