Oven-Fried Chicken With Creamy Gravy image

If desired you could omit oven baking and completely fry the chicken pieces in oil, increase oil to 3 cups for this, fry turning occasionally for about 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. One 3-1/2 to 4-pound chicken cut up can be used instead of the chicken thighs or use all breasts, I prefer to use all the same so the chicken cooks at the same time. *NOTE* if you wanted to take this chicken to a whole new level then brine in recipe#168990 for 24 hours, rinse the chicken thoroughly and completely under cold water, then continue with the recipe as stated, if you are using skin on chicken breasts I would highly recommend using the brine ;-)

2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons black pepper
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
8 chicken thighs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup canned low sodium chicken broth (use only low-sodium!)
1 cup half-and-half cream (can use milk but half and half cream is better)

  • In a shallow bowl beat 1/2 cup milk with 1 egg.
  • In a shallow bowl mix together flour, garlic salt, paprika, black pepper and poultry seasoning until well combined.
