Oven Baked Fried Chicken and Roasted Potatoes

Posted by Kelly Main Dishes, Real Food, Side Dishes 11 comments

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.

    Oven baked potatoes are SO simple, but always so incredibly GOOD. Even if you only add salt and pepper… I, personally think it’s magic.
    My fav seasoning is Cajun.

    Kelly,

    Question about the chicken recipe. After browning you say to put it in a glass dish lightly covered. Then you say to bake it. How long do you keep in the glass dish covered and then when you bake it, do you bake it uncovered? Thanks for the help!

      Yes, that should be more specific. Cover with foil without completely sealing edges and bake covered until it is done.
