Remember Shake and Bake Chicken?

 

Growing up with a houseful of people on a farm we spent a lot of time cooking! (And no, I don’t generally wear my hair down while in the kitchen.)

The following is my parents’ recipe for a coating mix for baking chicken. In our kitchen, we tripled this recipe!

You could make a larger quantity and store in an airtight container in the fridge for a quick and delicious meat dish! It never lasted that long at our house! 🙂

Grind or finely crush ¼ lb. (one tube) of crackers. (Use saltine or Ritz type)

Add 1 tsp. garlic salt

1 Tbsp. chili powder

1 tsp. onion salt

1 tsp. poultry seasoning

¼ cup brown sugar

¼ tsp. oregano

Mix together in large covered bowl. Coat chicken with the mixture thoroughly. Place in baking pan. Bake at 400 for about an hour; lower temperature to 300. Cover with foil and cook 1 hour longer or until tender.

Now eat!
