I also used boneless chicken breasts, and it was very good. Easy recipe to make.
I made this using boneless, skinless chicken breast since that is all I had on hand and it was amazing! I'm sure it would be even better as written (with a whole broiler chicken, cut up) and I can't wait to try it this way!
I'm making this tonight. Should the chicken be with skin or without? I'm confused.
I made this last night with chicken thighs. I reduced the ingredients by half because I didn't use a whole chicken. I followed the ingredients as written. Both my wife and I thought this was very good. We will be making this one again for sure. I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you Elva Jean.
I made this last night. I make a lot of chicken recipes, and this one was SO good. I increased the pepper to 1/4 tsp, added 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and increased the melted butter to 1/2 cup. As did several other reviewers, I laid the chicken on a rack, which kept the bottoms from getting soggy. The only thing I would change is to increase the temperature to 375. Maybe it's just my oven, but at 350 the chicken wasn't quite done in 60 minutes and had to do a bit longer. Other than that, it was perfect. AND, it tastes great hot or cold - I could easily see this as picnic chicken.
I've tried many (baked & crunchy) chicken recipes, but this one is by far, the VERY BEST!! The chicken was very tasty & juicy, so I'll stick with this recipe. The only bread crumbs which I had on hand were 'whole wheat Panko bread crumbs', so I used 'em. If anything, they made the chicken even crunchier! Thanks Elva Jean, for the very best Baked Chicken recipe ever!
Yummy and easy! This is a keeper!
I made this recipe exactly as written. It was delicious, my husband and daughter raved about it and the onions were the reason. The only thing I would do different is like Paul3303 said, use a rack and elevate the chicken. The tops were so crispy, but the bottoms were soggy. This is a keeper and I will make it many times after that one change.
simply awesome!!
This is one of the best of this type of oven-baked "fried" chicken recipes that I have ever tried - in fact, it may be the best. My husband gave it 5 stars! I think it is the French-fried onions that make the difference. Thanks for sharing!
