Spicy Oven Fried Chicken Recipe

	Mcnuttle / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago Healthy alternative to fried chicken that tastes as good! Don't let the chipotle pepper(s) in the marinade scare you away--only adds a hint of spiciness to the chicken. It's the cayenne in the coating that it'll give it a kick. I served this at a beach picnic and it was devoured.... More Prep:840m Cook:50m Servings:6	Mcnuttle

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups buttermilk

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1 large chipotle pepper with sauce, minced (add additional pepper for spicier chicken)

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

3 garlic cloves, minced

2 teaspoons salt

1 large onion, sliced

6 chicken breasts with skin removed

1 cup crushed cornflakes

1 cup panko bread crumbs

2/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1/2cup all purpose flour

4 teaspoons dried thyme

2 teaspoons oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 egg beaten with 3 tablespoons of water

flour for dredging chicken

3 tablespoons butter, melted, or olive oil

Directions

In plastic bag, combine marinade ingredients (buttermilk to salt) along with onion slices and chicken breasts. Marinate overnight, turning occasionally.

Combine coating mix (cornflakes to cayenne).

Place dredging flour, egg wash, and coating mix in separate bowls (or pans)

Remove chicken from marinade and shake off excess.

Coat each breast lightly with the flour (shake off excess), then dip into egg, and then into coating mix (press on any loose bits).

Refrigerate for one hour (this step is key).

Remove from refrigerator and drizzle with butter or olive oil.

Bake in preheated 425 degree oven for 50 minutes (time may vary depending on thickness of breast) until crisp and golden and cooked through.

Serve hot or room temperature.
