Great Southern Oven Fried Chicken image

I am a retired caterer. I have used this recipe for many years. Everyone I have served it too seems to just love it and always come back for seconds. Its one of the simplest and easiest fried chicken recipes you will ever prepare. The Ritz cracker crumbs were used many years ago as a last minute substitute for saltines. I think this was a one of my best substitutes ever. Needless to say I never used saltines again. I hope you enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 whole broiler-fryer chicken (cut into pieces)
1 cup butter (melted) or 1 cup margarine (melted)
2 cups Ritz crackers (crushed)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon sage
1/4 teaspoon cumin

Steps:

  • Spray a sheet cake style pan with non stick canola spray.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F
  • Wash chicken thoroughly and lay on paper towels and pat dry.
  • Melt butter in a medium sized dish.
  • Place Ritz cracker crumbs in a large bowl.
  • Mix all seasonings together in a small bowl.
  • Dip chicken pieces in the butter then immediately into the cracker crumbs.
  • Place chicken in the sprayed pan.
  • When all chicken is in the pan, sprinkle chicken evenly with seasoning mix.
