EZ Oven Baked Fried Chicken

I haven't been cooking much in my kitchen these days except for the weekends. Occasionally, I would love to indulge in some deep fried food but was put off doing it cos' I don't want to keep the deep fried used oil.  Some of you may say 'Aiyoh, so simple just buy lah!'.  Yes, I did but later regret it cos' I 'suffered' for 2 weeks because of this deep fried food which I bought.  May be I've a sensitive throat but I developed a sore throat which turned into a flu and bad cough.

Recently, I came across this recipe where I can have deep fried chicken using the oven.   The oven fried chicken is full of flavour without the greasiness as deep fried.  You can use other cuts of chicken, too.


I must say that I'm quite happy with the result eventhough the crispiness can still be improved but the meat was tender and juicy.  Probably, I'll try again with another flavour [here I used pepper/salt and curry powder].  Best  thing is, my throat was okay and the chicken wasn't oily even with the skin.

Ingredients
[serves 3]
3 piece chicken whole leg - [deboned chicken chop style]
2 tsp pepper and salt mix
1 tsp curry powder
  • Pat dry chicken drumstick and marinate with above pepper salt mix [I used the one I bought from Taiwan] and curry powder for several hours or overnight.
1 egg lightly beaten with 30 ml milk
30 ml melted butter
Flour Coating - mix together
2 tsp pepper and salt mix
1 tsp curry powder
1/2 cup all purpose flour


  1. Grease a baking rack with some melted butter or oil.  Place over a baking tray lined with aluminium foil [for easy cleaning].
  2. Dip marinated chicken legs with beaten egg, then coat with flour coating.  Shake off excess flour and place on a big plate.  Leave for 5-10 minutes, then put back into the flour mix to coat with more flour.
  3. Place chicken pieces on baking rack.  Drizzle  melted oil all over coated chicken pieces [this is to get the crispy coating].
  4. Baked in preheated oven at 200 degrees C [middle shelf] for 40 minutes.  Then grill for another 5-10 minutes until crispy.  Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes before serving [I served chicken without slicing].


Note:
Can coat chicken with any seasoning of your choice such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black or white pepper, Cajun seasoning etc.
