Wish there were more stars! This is the best chicken we've ever had! The entire meal was nothing but praises. Definitely made this a favorite.

Best tasting oven-fried coating I have ever had. Could vary the spices and create different flavors.

I follow a gluten free diet, so I used GF corn flakes instead of the bread crumbs. This was so good!! It will definitely be on the list of keepers! My husband, who doesn't have to go GF, really enjoyed it, too!

Am disappointed cause I cannot get this recipe; I am not a subscriber to the magazines anymore.  But I do use the oven fried chicken recipe all the time and I got it off the old BB.
