Homemade Shake and Bake Breading

Submitted by Bella Donna

"Homemade vs. Store bought mix for your chicken or whatever!"

 

• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1 cup breadcrumbs
• 1⁄2 cup flour
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• salt and pepper

directions

1. Combine ingredients and store in a sealable container or zipper topped plastic bag. This will keep up to 4 months in the pantry, depending on the humidity (you may just want to keep it in the freezer). This recipe will also double or triple well.
2. To Use: Preheat oven to 375°. Place one cup of mix in a plastic bag. In a bowl, mix an egg and 1/2 C skim milk.
3. Dip chicken pieces one at a time in the milk mixture, then shake one at a time in the plastic bag.
4. Place on a baking pan and bake for appropriate time (depending on the chicken you're using -as a little as 20 minutes or up to an hour for bigger, bone-in pieces).

This was excellent. I used seasoned bread crumbs and it is even better. Thanks

This is wonderful! It has a great flavor and I like using this instead of the boxed Shake and Bake because I can limit our salt. Plus it can be made with ingredients that I already have on hand. Thank you Bella Donna for posting!

Terrific version of Shake 'N Bake! I used soy flour, added onion powder, and used it on Pork - saving the rest in the freezer for future use.

Funny, without knowing it, I used this for the exact recipe shapeweaver used it for: Recipe #209670. I didn't use any salt, next time I will. I don't have to buy it in the store anymore! They're getting terribly expensive. Thanks for this one!!
