Instructions:
Marinate: In a large bowl, make the marinade by mixing together hot pepper sauce, water, mustard, and pepper. Add chicken; cover and marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour. While chicken is marinating make the coating. Coating: In a blender, place the breadcrumbs, flour, oil, garlic powder, onion powder, poultry seasoning and cornstarch, salt, sugar and paprika; blend until thoroughly mixed. Put the bread crumb mixture in a shallow dish. Assembly: Remove the chicken from the marinade and add to the crumb mixture, one piece at a time, turning to coat. Place chicken in single layer, in a shallow foil lined baking dish. Bake in 400 F for 20 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350ºF. and bake 20 minutes more or until chicken is fork tender. Cook: Joan M.

I also pierced the chicken breasts with a fork a few times, before placing it in the marinade. And added a bit more of crushed red peppers with the seasoned breadcrumbs. It was also easier for me to place the crumb mixture in a plastic ziplock bag, drop a piece of chicken in, shake it, pat it and place in the baking dish. I also made the Baked Beans 1 and actually followed the recipe, there were both delicious, Thanks, I'll try to add a few of mine in the next few weeks. |
