French-Fried Onion Baked Chicken

This recipe is awesome! So yummy and easy.

For a lower calorie version, omit butter and lightly sprinkle with vegetable oil or spray with pure vegetable oil cooking spray.

Substitute broiler chicken for whatever kind of chicken you would like. I usually cut up chicken breast into chicken fingers, for dipping purposes.

French-Fried Onion Baked Chicken

1 egg
2 Tablespoons milk
1 can (2.8 oz) French-fried onions, lightly crushed
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup unseasoned dried bread crumbs
1 teaspoon paprika
dash pepper
Optional seasonings – crushed red pepper, garlic powder
1 broiler fryer chicken (3 to 4 lbs) cut up
¼ cup butter

In a shallow bowl, whisk egg and milk. In another shallow bowl combine onions, Parmesan, dried bread crumbs, and all other seasonings.

Dip chicken in egg mixture and then roll in onion mixture.

Place on a greased cookie sheet. Drizzle with butter. Bake uncovered for 50-60 minutes or until juices run clear. Flip chicken pieces halfway through baking time.
