CINNAMON CHICKEN



Cinnamon Chicken image

Chicken breasts baked with cinnamon and other seasonings. This is a recipe that I created while working at a flight kitchen. We had cinnamon in the spice collection that nobody used for anything, so I decided to try it on chicken and the flight crews and my family loved it!

BREADED CURRY CHICKEN DRUMMIES



Breaded Curry Chicken Drummies image

These drumsticks are crispy with just the right amount of zing to get your mouth watering for more! They are super easy to make and are baked rather than fried so they save on fat but not on flavor. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or assorted chicken parts can be used instead of all drumsticks. -Lynn Kaufman, Mount Morris, Illinois

BREADED BAKED CHICKEN



Breaded Baked Chicken image

This is a family favorite recipe at our house that I usually make at least once per month. It's really like an oven-fried chicken, it should come out crispy and browned. I don't even measure the ingredients any more, I just dump the flour and spices in the bag and shake away - it's SO easy! This is great with mashed potatoes (if you make gravy with the pan drippings) and corn (in the summer), carrots (in the winter). The original recipe is from GH Illustrated Cookbook, I've changed a few things.

Provided by Hey Jude

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 55m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
3/4 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 (3 lb) fryer chickens, cut into 8 pieces each

Steps:

  • In a large roasting pan (or two 9x13 pans), in a 425° oven, melt the butter or margarine.
  • Mix flour, salt, paprika and pepper in a heavy-duty plastic bag; shake chicken pieces in the bag, a few at a time, until evenly coated.
  • In the pan (s), place the chicken, skin side down, in the melted butter; bake 30 minutes.
  • Turn chicken pieces and bake 15 minutes more until pieces are fork-tender.
  • I usually make gravy from the de-greased pan juices, using some or all of the leftover flour and some chicken stock.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for this recipe. You can also use chicken tenders or strips.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in the breading. This will help ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken. This will help prevent the chicken from steaming instead of frying.
  • Cook the chicken until it is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing are all good options.

Conclusion:

Breaded cinnamon chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a party appetizer. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the cinnamon sugar coating adds a touch of sweetness that is sure to please everyone. Serve it with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
