Oven-Fried Chicken

Great news—crunchy, flavorful fried chicken can be healthy. We marinate skinless chicken in buttermilk to keep it juicy. A light coating of flour, sesame seeds and spices, misted with olive oil, forms an appealing crust during baking. And with only 7 grams of fat per serving rather than the 20 in typical fried chicken—that is good news.

READER'S COMMENT:

This is a good recipe that has a bit of spice in it. My 5 yr old found it on the spicy side but I enjoyed it. I would recommend making sure you spray all sides of the chicken with cooking spray prior to putting it on the rate. Otherwise, it turned out good and was good cold the next day too. I followed the recipe as directed. I would use a little less hot sauce for kids. The chicken turned out juicy inside and crisp on the outside. We left the skin on prior to flouring.

We loved this recipe! It had tons of flavor and it was crispy as if I had fried it in oil. I sprayed the pan with Pam but I also sprayed the pieces - front and back - really good with Pam. I checked the chicken as it baked and if there were any flour spots, I sprayed the spots with Pam. It was juicy and delicious! Even the next day for lunch!

Mine crisped up but there were patches of flour coating the chicken scattered all over. The chicken was moderately moist.
