Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Lighter Oven-Fried Chicken: For 11 grams of fat and 235 calories per serving, remove skin from chicken before cooking. Do not melt butter in pan; spray pan with cooking spray. Decrease butter to 2 tablespoons; drizzle over chicken after turning in step 3.
  • tip 2
    Chicken Fingers: Substitute 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch strips, for the broiler-fryer. Decrease butter to 2 tablespoons. After coating chicken with flour mixture in step 2, toss with melted butter in pan. Bake uncovered 15 minutes. Turn strips; bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until no longer pink in center.
  • tip 3
    Crunchy Oven-Fried Chicken: Substitute 1 cup cornflake crumbs for the 1/2 cup flour. Dip chicken into 1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, melted, before coating with crumb mixture.
