Serving6
Ingredients
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3 Tablespoon milk
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese
- ¼ cup fine dry bread crumbs, (I used Italian Style, just for a little more flavor)
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano , crushed
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ⅛ teaspoon pepper
- 2½ pounds chicken pieces, meaty, (breasts, thighs, and drumsticks)
- 2 Tablespoon margarine, or butter, melted
Instructions
- Combine egg and milk in a small bowl. Combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, oregano, paprika, and pepper in a shallow dish.
- Skin chicken if desired. Dip chicken pieces into egg mixture; coat with crumb mixture. Arrange chicken pieces in a greased 15x10x2-inch baking pan so pieces don't touch. Drizzle chicken pieces with the melted margarine or butter.
- Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 45 to 55 minutes or until chicken is tender and no longer pink. Do not turn chicken pieces during baking. Immediately transfer chicken to a covered container; serve within 1 hour. Or cover and chill chicken; transport in an insulated container with ice packs.
