Baked Herb Chicken!



We eat a LOT of chicken in this house. Mostly just because it's pretty much the cheapest meat. But there are also a ton of ways to fix it! So tonight, we're going for baked herb chicken. I'm changing up the recipe a bit, though, so it'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

Baked Herb Chicken

2/3 c dry potato flakes
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into pieces
1/2 c grated Parmesan
1 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/8 tsp caraway (optional)
1/4 c butter, melted

Preheat oven to 375. In a bowl, combine potato flakes, Parmesan, and herbs; mix well. Dip chicken in melted butter then cover with potato flake mixture. Place on a greased baking sheet. Bake 45-60 min., or until chicken is tender & golden.


The chicken turned out very tasty! Elijah (my pickiest eater!) still didn't eat it, but he almost did, and that's saying something! Lol. Anyway, if there had been any more than 1/8 tsp caraway, it would have been too much. But I liked the hint of flavor this little bit provided. I know not everyone would, though, so I'd say that herb's optional rather than absolutely necessary. (Just thought I'd throw it in because that's one of those spices I rarely use...) I think this may be one of my new favorites!
