Chicken

Paper Bag Fried Chicken

Just an FYI today. Talked to a friend of mine today that told me she “fries” her chicken in a paper bag in the oven. She just buys cut up chicken with the skin on and cleans it. Then coats the chicken in flour and places it in a brown paper bag which she has lightly greased the entire inside of the bag with Crisco or Pam and then places the bag on a cookie sheet  before laying the chicken inside. Turn the opening of the bag to where it is closed and place the bag of chicken in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 45 to 50 min and remove chicken from bag. Be careful as you open the bag because the steam will burn you if you are not careful. She says that it has the taste of fried chicken without all the oil. She said to leave the skin on for extra crunchiness……Not exactly “fat free” or low cal, but certainly better than deep frying chicken in a pot of oil…..I am going to try this probably on Sun night and let you know how it turns out. If you try it before me, please let me know what you think….have a blessed weekend and talk to you Mon……tkchocolate
