Ingredients

1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter, melted
3 lbs chicken pieces (1 whole chicken, cut up or whatever pieces you prefer)

Steps:

Combine first 5 ingredients.
Dip chicken pieces in milk.
Then roll in cornmeal mixture.
Place in a well greased 13x9 pan.
Drizzle the butter over chicken.
Bake uncovered in a preheated 375 degree oven for 50- 55 minutes.
Note: I think chicken (fried or baked) tastes better if soaked for at least 4 hours in salt water.
I use seasoned salt- about 3 Tbls.
in a bowl of water big enough to hold chicken.
Be sure to dry the chicken before using.
