Cook Time: 90 mins

Total Time: 150 mins

Ingredients

1/2 cup lowfat buttermilk
1 1/2 tbsps garlic powder
1 tsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tbsps onion powder
1/2 tsp paprika
2 tsps black pepper
1 tsp poultry seasoning
1 tsp vegetable oil
4 breasts, bone and skin removed chicken
4 drumsticks, bone and skin removed chicken
2 tsps dried hot pepper
1 cup cornflakes, crumbled

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C).

2. Add 1/2 teaspoon of poultry seasoning to milk.

3. Combine all other spices with cornflake
crumbs and place in plastic bag.

4. Wash chicken and pat dry. Dip chicken into milk, shake to remove excess, then quickly shake in bag with seasoning and crumbs.

5. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

6. Remove from refrigerator and sprinkle lightly with paprika for color.

7. Evenly space chicken on greased baking pan.

8. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for an added 30–40 minutes or until meat can
be easily pulled away from bone with fork. Drumsticks may require less baking time than breasts. (Do not turn chicken during baking.) Crumbs will form crispy "skin."
