what is the best & easiest way to make crispy oven baked chicken?

Question

legs & thighs, w/somekind of coating that will stay crunchy & not get soggy.

Answer 1

I prefer Oven-Fry myself if you're gonna use a premix.
Otherwise, bread crumbs, crunched saltines, cereal flakes, and your preferred seasonings all make good coating after dipping them in a beat egg.

But whatever I'm cooking (this goes for more than just fried chicken) I will turn the oven to broil, or highest heat, for the last 5-10 minutes to give a browned crisp.

Another Tip: Try to put your coated chicken in the pan on top of a rack. Then the juices pool under the chicken instead of the chicken sogging its breading in the juice. But you may want to cover the chicken so as not to get dry ..and increase cooking time.

Crispy Oven Chicken:

2 cups crushed cornflakes cereal
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup egg substitute
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
4 (4-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Stir together first 5 ingredients.

Whisk together egg substitute and mustard until well blended. Coat all sides of chicken with egg mixture, and dredge in cornflakes mixture. Arrange chicken on a lightly greased wire rack on a baking sheet.

Answer 3

Just take your chicken, put it in a roasting dish, preheat the oven to 220 C, pop your chicken in for 15-20 minutes, then take it out and turn the oven down to 160-170 C. Get a good slice of butter, and spear it on the end of a knife or fork, and rub it all over the exposed skin of the chicken so it melts into it and covers it completely. Put your chicken back in, and slow-roast, basting every half-hour or so. The butter will make the skin crispy and buttery and delicious, and will also bring out the natural juices, so as you baste the chicken and it sits in its juices, the meat will be really tender and moist. Yummy yum yum! Enjoy!!

Answer 6

Buy some italian bread crumbs and some corn flakes (NOT the frosted kind)

grind up the cornflakes and mix with italian bread crumbs.

coat chicken in egg/water mix (2 eggs per half cup of water) and then bread with the bread crumb mix.

Bake in the oven and it'll come out crispy, crunchy and pre-packed with flavour. Add some garlic powder or onion powder to the crumbs if you like.
