Being veggie, I get a meat eater to do this one! Run your finger under the skin so you can stuff it with slices of lemon and a herb/s of your choice:)

If skin and boneless, try herbs you like in the crumbs and use the wash of soy and honey to hold them on.

Welcome to the happy, helpful thread. You will get help here.
Go into the message board on the left hand side. Where it isays keyword put chicken coating, then under date posted put anytime. Help is there & you will probably get more during the day.

Check out the thread about chicken drumsticks too

put some flour in a bowl, season with salt, pepper, powdered garlic, paprika, whatever you have powdered for flavour. You can also add breadcrumbs, put your chicken peices in a bowl of water, lift from bowl and let most of the water run off, roll in the flour. This is ok to bake in a roasting dish with a little oil in the bottom. It is yummy and abit like the coating on kfc.

sometimes i crumb coat the whole piece first dip in flour then egg the a bowl of bread crumbd with mixed herbs or garlic and herb salt or what ever spices you like . latelt i have been making a sort of stuffing crust to put on top.

take skin off chicken, in a bowl mix bread crumbs(fresh is better just blitz a piece of bread or two in processor ) add melted butter say 25-50 gms depending on how much bread you have then add herbs and spices if you havent any salt and pepper and grab a handful(should hold together well) and press on top of chicken
bake as per normal but perhaps 10 mins longer than usual. keeps chicken very moist and its yum

Coat n cook is very tasty and easy for those not wanting to muck around too much.

For drumsticks or nibbles I coat in a mix of herbs, sea salt, paprika & olive oil -
Make sure you place these on a hot oven tray and turn them once mid way through cooking - crispy and delicious every time :-)

Welcome to 'Recipes'.. :-)

Our favourite.. crush cornflakes finely, add some grated lemon rind and some cinnamon.. a little brown sugar if you want..
Dip chicken in milk, then the crumb mix..
or.. into flour then egg then into the crumb mix.

This is really tasty, thaw chick pieces, on a dish put enough flour to coat lightly the chicken add to this S&P a crushed chicken stk cube & cajun seasoning. Get oven dish hot in 200 (c) oven take out add olive oil, dredge chick generously and put in hot dish, sprinkle mixed herbs over chick and two to three cloves garlic chopped (or dried garlic) bake in oven until cooked, my family call it shazas KFC. (you can sprinkle a finely chopped onion over if you like as well)

I just use stuffing mix from a box. Normally dip the chicken in egg then in the stuffing mix and then bake in the oven. Its very nice on fish too. Prep the same way and then fry.
