Oven baked fried chicken and roasted potatoes make a great dinner combination.
The oven baked fried chicken creates a great flavor with minimal effort. Also, the texture of the breading is softer than it would be if it were just fried.
The roasted potatoes are a family favorite that ranks way up there on the simplicity level. Always a bonus. When I want to throw something in the oven quickly, often these are the potatoes that I will make. You can change up the spices according to your tastes, even add some Parmesan cheese.
