I put my chicken in cold oil one day when I was in a hurry and it all came off of my chicken and I had uncoated fried chicken on one side.) Bake for about 30 minutes or until golden brown then flip chicken over and bake on the other side for another 30-40 minutes. |
I have a recipe for this but it says to deep fry it for a few minutes first....an extra step I don't want, and a waste of time and oil. (I love Ina Garten,I have 4 of her cookbooks and use them weekly, but her recipes are like none of us live on a budget). This seems like a much more do-able alternative without heating up a bottle of veg. oil! I will try this for sure!
btw, how much olive oil?
