Oven Fried Chicken
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, this Oven Fried Chicken is so delicious and does not require any deep-frying!
We eat a lot of chicken at our house, so I’m always looking for new chicken dinner ideas. When I came across this recipe for oven-fried chicken I was intrigued and put it on the menu immediately. 🙂
The results were stellar! The crust was crispy and perfect on the outside, yet it was juicy and flavorful on the inside. My entire family ate it right up. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to throw together and was thankful it didn’t take a big oily mess to make it!
I served ours with a side of mashed potatoes, gravy and corn and we enjoyed every bit of our “Fried” Chicken dinner. It was lip-smackin’ good!

Instead of a baking sheet, I put my chicken tenders in a cast iron skillet.
Worked great! I followed recipe ingredients, tastes great!
These were absolutely delicious! I loved loved loved them deeply.
I have to tell you, I’ve made this for years! all 4 of my kids will eat it which is pretty rare so we’ve had this many many times. today I just realized I’ve never put the planko bread crumbs in not one time. still had turned out great! I’ve also used Kodiak buttermilk pancake mix instead of flour and that is great too!
Every time I make oven fried chicken expecting it to come out crisp. On the first time turning all the breading comes off, it’s a mess. Help? Any tips. We only eat chichen tenders, no bones for me.
