Baked Chicken
Kind of like fried chicken but baked. This is the way I always make it now.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 3 lb fryer chickens, cut into 8 pieces each
Instructions
- In a large roasting pan (or two 9x13 pans), in a 425° oven, melt the butter or margarine.
- Mix flour, salt, paprika and pepper in a heavy-duty plastic bag; shake chicken pieces in the bag, a few at a time, until evenly coated.
- In the pan (s), place the chicken, skin side down, in the melted butter; bake 30 minutes.
- Turn chicken pieces and bake 15 minutes more until pieces are fork-tender.
- I usually make gravy from the de-greased pan juices, using some or all of the leftover flour and some chicken stock.
