Oven Fried Chicken

This is one of Brent's favorites. It is from Meals On The Move: Rush Hour Recipes by Holly Clegg.

Oven Fried Chicken

Ingredients: 1 c. buttermilk, salt and pepper to taste, 1/2 tsp. minced garlic, 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken breast, 2 c. italian bread crumbs, 1/4 c. grated parmesan cheese (bagged stuff is fine for this recipe), 2 TBSP. butter or margarine, melted.

Combine buttermilk, salt, pepper, and garlic. Pour over the chicken, turning to coat. Marinate, covered, at least 2 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator. Drain the chicken. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Coat the chicken with this mixture and place on a baking sheet coated with nonstick cooking spray and chill for 30 minutes to an hour. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle the chicken with the margarine*. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until tender and golden brown. Makes 6-8 servings.

*I sometimes get lazy, actually a lot of times, and I just spray the chicken over the top with some cooking spray.
