Baked Fried Chicken Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts*
- 3 cups buttermilk**
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp ground paprika
- 1 tbsp all-purpose seasoning*** (such as Lawry's)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (melted (½ stick))
- ¼ cup fresh flat leaf parsley (optional)
Instructions

Cut the chicken breasts in half, lengthwise, to create 4 thinner, even portions.

Blot each chicken breast with a paper towel to remove excess milk before dipping. Dip each chicken breast, one at a time, in the flour mixture. Coat both sides. Place in the pan.

Repeat with all four chicken breasts, making sure there is a small amount of room between each breast in the pan. This will allow them to crisp while baking.

Bake at 400ºF for 35-40 minutes (or until the breading is golden brown and the juices run clear), flipping each breast after 20 minutes.
