ADVERTISEMENT

Ingredients:

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thirds

1 cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon seasoned salt (e.g., Lawry’s)

¾ teaspoon pepper

2 teaspoons paprika

½ stick butter (¼ cup)

Buttermilk

Instructions:

Marinate the Chicken:

Place the chicken strips in a bowl and cover with buttermilk. Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.

Preheat the Oven:

Set the oven to 400°F.

Prepare the Coating:

In a large Ziploc bag or mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, seasoned salt, pepper, and paprika.

Melt the Butter:

Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking pan and heat it in the preheated oven until melted. Swirl the butter to evenly coat the pan.

Coat the Chicken:

Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off. Coat each piece thoroughly in the flour mixture.

Bake the Chicken:

Arrange the chicken strips in the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip each piece and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 170°F.

Serve warm and enjoy your crispy, oven-baked fried chicken!
