Directions
Easy Crispy Dijon Chicken, This is sooo easy to make, and everyone thinks you spent a lot of time making it. The cooking technique is what really makes this recipe work so well. You’ll probably end up using this technique a lot; I sure do. I made Kittencal’s Easy and Delicious Ranch-Parmesan Chicken this way and it was amazing. OK, back to the recipe; use only 1/2 as much butter as the original recipe called for but I am posting it exactly as I received it. I think 2 tablespoons butter is plenty but you judge for yourself. So, keep in mind that you can cut the fat considerably by reducing the butter. I also use regular 1 or 2% milk instead of half and half when that’s all I have around. It always comes out delicious. You can use this recipe for pork chops, too., This was good. I quartered the recipe and baked it in a small dish., YUM. I love the dijon batter on this chicken, and your “oven-frying” technique is awesome. My chicken was kind of soggy on the bottom, but the top was super-crispy and delicious. Great recipe- thanks.

This Step Is Important. Put the Chicken Down in the Dish and Turn It Over Right Away. the Idea Is to Put It in the Butter Briefly and Turn It Over So the Butter Side Is Up. It Makes the Chicken Get Evenly Crispy. use This Technique For All of My Oven "frying" Because It Works So Well. |
