I need a recipe for chicken (baked) that doesn't require a lot of ingredients, and I don't like shake & bake?

Question

Running very low on the usual ingredients, and I have to throw something together w/out going to the grocery store today...

Answer 1

sprinkle some seasonings on it (my dad likes lemon pepper, I perfer seasoning salt, pepper, garlic pwd, onion pwd, parsley) and bake it. If you have chicken boullion cubes, take a couple of them, boil them in a cup of water, dice up some onions and celery (optional) and put them in there. Then take a very small amount of milk and cornstarch, whisk it together, and add to the water. Whisk until thick. Pour it over your chicken. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

This chicken is delicious with a sweet and tangy glaze. You can always use just breast or thigh or leg pieces in place of a whole chicken. It depends on what you like! Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS
1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup prepared mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon curry powder
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place chicken pieces in a shallow baking pan, skin side up. Combine the melted butter or margarine, honey, mustard, salt and curry powder and pour the mixture over the chicken. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/4 hours (75 minutes), basting every 15 minutes with pan drippings, until the chicken is nicely browned and tender and the juices run clear.

Answer 3

Do you have flour, eggs and bread?

Turn the bread into breadcrumbs. If you have some parmesan cheese you can add that to them. Season with salt and pepper and any dried herbs you might have or like.

Put some flour on a plate. Break an egg or two into a shallow bowl and whisk. Put the breadcrumbs on another plate.

Dredge chicken breasts in the flour, coating them evenly on both sides and shaking of any excess. Dip them in the beaten egg [both sides] and then into the breadcrumbs [both sides], pressing the breadcrumb mixture into the chicken. Put the coated chicken on a baking sheet that has been drizzled with vegetable oil and bake for 7 minutes at 375, turn over and bake another 5 to 7 minutes or until the juices run clear.

Answer 4

When running low as you are, we were having chicken too. I had a couple of eggs left but no bread or bread crumbs so I took raisin bran and crush it up and coated the chicken with that. Actually any dry cereal will work just crush it up. Experiment, there are so many different things that you can use. Do you have ketchup and sugar, mix together and coat with that. When sweetened it comes out similar to that of BBQ chicken. Salad dressings also work well. Coat in onion soup mix. We have even coated ours with cheddar cheese soup and baked it that way. For a plain baked chicken just season with salt and pepper and bake. Oh my kids just reminded me that potato chips or pretzels crushed up really do make for something different and it tastes good when baked as a coating on your chicken.

Experiment and Enjoy!

Answer 5

I like to marinate my chicken in Italian dressing for about 30 min. before I bake, or just mix some oil, herbs/spices you like, a bit of vinegar or lemon juice and pour it over the chicken for the marinade. Cover the chicken in the pan and bake.

Here is another recipe:
Easy Oven Baked Chicken Recipe

1 fryer chicken -- cut up
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon tarragon
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons butter

Place chicken pieces in a baking dish. Combine all seasoning and sprinkle even over chicken. Cut butter into bits. Dot on top of chicken. Bake covered at 350F for 30 minutes. Remove cover and bake for an additional 10 minutes.

Answer 6

This is a nice way to cook chicken, and it turns out much fancier than you would expect. Make fresh breadcrumbs in the food processor and place into a big bowl. Add any seasonings you would like, Italian season mix is nice. Or parsley flakes and garlic salt. (I don't know, 4 or 5 slices of bread?) Melt about 1/2 stick of butter and add as much mustard (maybe less) and combine. Rinse and dry chicken pieces (or just breast pieces) and dip into the butter mixture. Place in buttered casserole, top with remaining butter and crumbs. Bake until thoroughly done, but it does tend to dry out easily.

Answer 7

This is what I do when the cupboards are bear.
Put the chicken in a baking dish with Italian dressing and bake, at 350 for an hour. I was amazed at how good it is. Happy cooking!

Answer 8

My daughter's recipe. Rub chicken pieces with Adobo or other spice mix, place in baking pan prepared with non-stick spray, cover with cream of "something" soup and put in 350 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes.

Answer 9

Simplest and tasty chicken requires two things a bottle of Italian dressing and the chicken.

Marinate your chicken in a bottle of Italian dressing for about an hour put in the oven with the marinade over it and bake until done. simple and tasty.

Answer 10

It is no longer what you do devour. It can be what you don't consume. Certainly not cook with or consume butter. Never eat trans fat never consume over four grams saturated fats per meal do not drink entire milk or devour cheese don't devour things that are available in a bag don't devour frozen ingredients don't devour white bread or pasta (entire wheat only!) do not consume canned veggies (recent!) do not devour over four hundred energy per meal don't devour more than four occasions a day. 4 meals @ four hundred calories minus fats = first-class physique.
