OVEN FRIED CHICKEN w-PARSLEID POTATOES Recipes

This is the best oven-fried chicken recipe ever!

And easy too ;-)

I have a lot of chicken recipes, but this one is my favorite:

Oven-fried Chicken Dinner; chicken breast eaten tonight.

I made homemade bread crumbs the other day (https://jeastofeden.blogspot.com/2019/05/rain-has-arrived-d.html), grinding dried bread pieces in an old coffee bean grinder I bought at a garage sale 5 years ago to use specifically for blending herbs and grinding bread crumbs; and they smelled so good being ground and air-dried, I just had to have this chicken tonight. LOL

OVEN FRIED CHICKEN w-PARSLEID POTATOES ~serves 2

¼ cup Shortening (part Butter) * ¼ cup Flour (or homemade Bread Crumbs) * ½ teaspoon Salt * 1/8 teaspoon Paprika * 1/8 teaspoon ground Black pepper * 1-1/2 pounds Chicken pieces

Heat oven to 425-degrees.

In oven, melt the shortening and butter in a 9 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.

Mix remaining ingredients in a plastic baggie and shake chicken pieces in the mixture until well coated; place coated chicken pieces in the melted shortening mixture, and bake in oven for 30 minutes. Turn chicken and continue cooking another 15 to 20 minutes longer.

==PARSLIED POTATOES ~serves 2

1 pound potatoes (whole baby potatoes or chunked potato pieces) * 2 Tablespoons Butter * 1 to 2 Tablespoons chopped Parsley

If using whole baby potatoes, scrub them thoroughly.

If you are using chunked potato pieces - pare the potatoes then cut them into chunks.

Add potatoes to water in a medium sized saucepan and cook until tender; about 20 to 25 minutes.

Drain. Add butter and parsley and toss to coat.

Tonight I ate the chicken with parslied potatoes … I froze the other portion for a future meal of Oven Fried Chicken with prepared Chicken Stuffing and garden-fresh Green Beans ...
