Cheesy Oven-Fried Chicken

Submitted by SnowyowlPB

"A real quick and easy dish that I have had a lot of complaints on. I hope that you will also enjoy!! Also to save calories, remove the skin from the chicken before coating.This is also good using breasts that are boneless, but add a little more crackers and cut the cooking time to about a 1/2 hour."

The recipe as written was good. I made my own little tweaks: replaced basil with marjoram. added a little garlic powder.<br/>For the crackers I used white cheddar goldfish. It was a big hit and I will make it again and will make further tweaks, I am sure.
