January 26th: Fearless "Fried" Chicken

Here we go with words in quotation marks again. Obviously, the chicken is not fried. I believe the "fearless" refers to you not being afraid of this chicken, as it is not fried. This implies you should be afraid of fried chicken, which, of course, you should. Be very, very afraid.

For us, this is a retry from last year: from January 2010's Today's Parent: Fearless "Fried" Chicken (i.e., breaded and baked chicken). It was a hit and is now a member of our revered keeper book, for which so many recipes strive and yet so few succeed. I served this with coleslaw and sweet potato fries.

Unless you have complete spice-phobes in your household, I recommend using the full 1 tsp of cayenne. It does add some kick, but a good amount, and the flavour is improved by turning up the heat just a touch.

Happy "frying."

  1. The recipe came to me from Today's Parent. However, a few months back, they updated their website, and all my links to their recipes are now broken. I can find this recipe on the TP website, but can't open it. Luckily, it is one they borrowed from Chatelaine, so I've updated the above link with the Chatelaine one.
