Equipment

  • small bowl
  • shallow dish
  • 15x10x2 Sheet Pan

Ingredients

  • 1 egg beaten
  • 3 Tablespoons milk
  • ½ cup grated 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 Tablespoons 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.

Notes

Serve with:
  • Veggie Pasta Salad
  • Green Salad
  • Fruit Salad
