Steps:
- Prep: Heat the oven to 410°F (210°C). Place a dark-colored (or at the very least a silver metal) roasting pan (a rimmed baking sheet works as well) in the oven to heat up.
- Prepare breading: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and the milk. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, breadcrumbs, baking powder and seasoning together.
- Bread the chicken: Toss the chicken pieces in the flour, coating evenly and shaking off any extra flour. Next, toss the chicken pieces in the egg mixtures. Then, dip each into the flour mix again, this time coating very well - press the breading well on the chicken to make it stick.
- Place chicken on pan: Take the baking pan out of the oven and melt the butter on it. Place the coated chicken pieces on the tray - leave enough space in between, I usually bake it in two batches.
- Oven fry: Bake for 10-12 minutes, carefully flip and bake for another 5-10 minutes (depending on how thick your chicken pieces are). Finish by broiling the chicken until it turns golden brown and crispy.

Steps:
- In a medium sized bowl, whisk the dry ingredients together.
- Grease a baking sheet really well and set aside.
- Beat the eggs and place in a small bowl. Line up your bowls and your baking sheet in this order from right to left; egg, flour, then baking sheet. This will make sense once you start dipping, for a messy cook like me, I have to try and keep things clean once in a blue moon.
- First, dip your chicken into the flour mixture and cover it completely.
- Then go to the egg mixture, and cover it again completely, this time with egg.
- Back to the flour mixture to cover it completely again, trying not to disturb the two other layers you just did.
- Place the chicken on the baking sheet, and repeat with all the pieces of chicken until they are all done. Now it is time to put them into the fridge and let them sit for 30 minutes. DO NOT skip this part, it helps the layers adhere to not only the chicken, but themselves. And make sure you let the chicken sit in the fridge, in the cold.
- After the 30 minutes, melt the margarine and pour over the chicken pieces.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Bake the chicken for 40-45 minutes until the breast meat reaches 165 °F and the thigh meat is 180 °F.
- Remove and serve!

Steps:
- Wash and semi dry chicken breasts.
- Roll or shake chicken in flour, salt, paprika and pepper mixture.
- Pour small amount of oil in shallow baking dish.
- Lay chicken breasts, boney side up.
- Bake 30 minutes at 375.
- Remove from oven, turn over, return to oven and continue baking for 30 minutes at 375.
- Remove from oven and serve.
Tips:
- Use a buttermilk marinade. Buttermilk helps to tenderize the chicken and gives it a crispy coating. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
- Use a double coating. Dredging the chicken in flour, then eggs, and then flour again helps to create a crispy coating that will stay on the chicken even after it's been fried.
- Use a high oven temperature. Baking the chicken at a high temperature helps to create a crispy coating and cook the chicken through quickly.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If you overcrowd the baking sheet, the chicken will not cook evenly. Make sure to leave enough space between each piece of chicken so that the air can circulate.
- Bake the chicken until it is golden brown and crispy. The chicken should be cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
Oven-fried chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make alternative to traditional fried chicken. By following these tips, you can make oven-fried chicken that is crispy, juicy, and flavorful. Serve it with your favorite sides for a satisfying meal that the whole family will love.
