Preparation

Step 1

The chicken I am sharing with you today is the most flavorful oven fried chicken I have ever tasted. The recipe came from Granny Jordan’s file of handwritten recipe cards and as soon as I saw the ingredients I knew I’d love it. Dipping it in Italian dressing makes a key difference, and the jazzed up breading ingredients help seal in the moisture and add a delicious crust while it bakes.

To make this, you’ll need:  Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, Italian Dressing, Bread Crumbs, Parmesan Cheese, Dried Parsley, Garlic Salt*, and Pepper.

Place Italian dressing in one dish and breading ingredients in another.

Stir your breading ingredients together.

Dip each chicken breast, first in the dressing on both sides, then in the breading mix.

Place pieces in a baking dish that has been sprayed lightly with cooking spray.

1. Preheat oven to 350. Lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

2. In a shallow bowl or pie plate, stir together bread crumbs, cheese, parsley flakes, garlic salt, and pepper. Pour Italian dressing into a separate shallow bowl.

3. Dip each chicken breast into the salad dressing to coat both sides, then dredge it in the bread crumb mixture and transfer it to a plate.

4. Place chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and bake until they are cooked through, 30-40 minutes.
