The coating on fried chicken is very good.If you're looking for an easier way to eat chicken, make oven- fried chicken.Most oven- fried chicken is soaked in a brine (saltwater solution) before it is coated with seasoned flour, breadcrumbs, or crushed cornflakes.Place the chicken in a baking dish and cook it in the oven until it becomes fried.You will never cook chicken again.
Step 1: Remove the chicken from the brine.
Measure the amount of sea salt into a large bowl.Put 1 cup of warm water into a container and stir it.There is fat on 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs.The chicken can soak for a long time if you brine it early in the day or night.
Step 2: The chicken should be chilled in the brine.
Add enough cold water to the bowl to cover the chicken thighs.The ice cubes will make the water very cold.Put the bowl in the fridge.The chicken should be chilled for several hours or overnight.The bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs will give the dish more flavor and keep it moister than the skinless chicken.
Step 3: Put the chicken in the oven.
The oven should be turned on to 400F.Remove the chicken from the refrigerator.Blot the chicken with paper towels.The chicken will be better in the oven if the water is removed.
Step 4: Get the roasting pan ready.
A large roasting pan is large enough to hold all of the pieces of chicken in a single layer.Put the butter in the pan and it will be ready for the oven.The pan should become hot while you cook the chicken.The chicken will be able to cook in the pan.
Step 5: The chicken is tossed with flour and seasonings.
All-purpose flour can be put into a large plastic freezer bag.Add the salt and black pepper.The salt and pepper mix should be put in the bag.Shake the chicken thighs until they're coated.The chicken thighs may not be evenly covered in the flour mixture if you put all of them in at once.
Step 6: The chicken should be placed in the roasting pan.
Shake off any extra flour after removing the chicken thighs from the bag.While you coat the rest of the thighs, set them on a plate.To remove the hot baking dish from the oven, use hot pads.Place the chicken thighs in the roasting pan.The chicken will have a thick coating if you don't shake the flour off.
Step 7: Place the chicken in the oven.
The chicken should be cooked in the oven for 40 minutes.You can hear the chicken cooking in the oven.It should be dark brown on the bottom.As the chicken cooks, don't flip it.Depending on the oven you use, you may need to cook the chicken longer.
Step 8: The chicken needs to be baked.
Remove the hot pan from the oven and use a thin spatula to scoop up the thighs.Return the pan to the oven and cook the chicken for another 20 minutes.The other side of the chicken will be crisp.If the chicken thighs aren't clinging to the pan, you could use tongs to turn them.
Step 9: The chicken is baked in the oven.
The serving plate has paper towels on it.Remove the baking dish from the oven and use tongs to transfer the chicken thighs to the serving plate.Before serving, sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper.The paper towels absorb grease and oil.
Step 10: The baking dish needs to be prepared.
The oven should be turned on to 410F.A large roasting pan is large enough to hold all of the chicken in a single layer.The dish should be put in the oven to heat it up.Chicken can be put into a hot pan.
Step 11: Add the egg and milk.
Crack an egg into a bowl.When the egg is completely incorporated, pour in 1/3 cup of milk.The mixture should be set aside.
Step 12: The coating should be whisked.
Place 1 cup of all-purpose flour and 4 cups of breadcrumbs in a prep bowl.Put the baking powder and seasonings in the bowl.You'll need to add baking powder, salt, garlic, onion, and ground pepper.
Step 13: The chicken needs to be cut and dipped in the dry coating.
Take 2 pounds of skinless chicken breast and use a knife to cut it into pieces.Place the chicken strips in the dry mixture and toss them.Remove any excess from the pieces.All of the chicken won't fit in the bowl at the same time, so you need to coat them in batches.
Step 14: The chicken must be put into the egg mixture.
Put the chicken in the bowl with the egg mixture and cover the strips with it.You have to do this in batches so you don't crowd the chicken.
Step 15: The chicken should be put in the dry coating again.
The chicken strips should be put into the bowl with the dry coating.The chicken strips are completely covered with the dry mixture.
Step 16: The chicken pieces should be in the pan with the butter.
To remove the baking dish from the oven, use hot pads.Put 60 g of butter in it.The hot pan should cause it to melt quickly.Lay the chicken strips in the pan after the butter has melted.
Step 17: Put the chicken in the oven.
Put the pan back in the oven and bake the chicken for 10 to 12 minutes.The chicken should be golden brown when you see it.Chicken that is skinless can be cut into strips to cook quickly.
Step 18: Continue baking the chicken after it has been flipped.
To flip the chicken, remove the pan from the oven and use a thin spatula or tongs.After 5 to 10 minutes in the oven, return the pan and bake the chicken again.This will help the other side.The chicken should be removed from the oven and served.Broiling the chicken for a few minutes until it's as crisp as you like it will make it even better.
Step 19: The chicken should be put with the seasonings.
Sprinkle the seasonings over the skinless chicken drumsticks in the prep bowl.Put the drumsticks in a bowl and coat them with seasonings.You'll need: Kosher salt, sweet paprika, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 20: Pour the liquids over the chicken.
Put 1 cup of buttermilk over the drumsticks.Put the lemon in the bowl with the chicken.The chicken should be chilled in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours.If you want to serve the chicken the night before, you can chill it overnight.
Step 21: The baking sheet should be prepared in the oven.
Turn the oven on to 400 degrees F when you're ready to cook.Put a wire rack on the baking sheet.The rack and baking sheet should be sprayed with cooking spray.
Step 22: The dry coating needs to be combined.
Take 1/3 cup (60 g) of bread crumbs and 1/2 cup (15 g), crushed cornflakes, and put them in a shallow prep bowl.When they're combined, stir in the remaining coating ingredients.You'll need to add onion powder, garlic powder and chili powder.
Step 23: The chicken must be covered with the dry coating.
Put the drumsticks in the dry coating.The drumsticks are completely coated in the mixture.If they don't fit in the mixture at once, you may need to coat them in batches.
Step 24: The chicken should be sprayed.
The wire rack is on the baking sheet.Take your cooking spray and spray the drumsticks.The drumsticks will be crispier.
Step 25: The chicken needs to be baked.
drumsticks can be cooked in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes.They should turn golden brown.Remove the drumsticks from the oven.Since the drumsticks are on the wire rack, you don't need to turn them.
