Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Chicken Fingers: Substitute 1 1/2 lb (750 g) boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch strips, for the cut-up whole chicken. Decrease butter to 2 tablespoons. After coating chicken with flour mixture in step 2, toss with melted butter in pan. Bake uncovered 15 minutes. Turn strips; bake 10 to 15 minutes longer or until no longer pink in centre.
  • Tip 2
    Crunchy Oven-Fried Chicken: Substitute 1 cup cornflake crumbs for the 1/2 cup flour. Dip chicken into 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted, before coating with crumb mixture.
