Crispy Oven Baked Chicken
Who does not like crispy chicken with golden crispy crust and moist meat?!
There are hundreds of recipes for crispy chicken you can find in the internet and cooking books.
After watching my beloved My Kitchen Rules where they cooked crispy chicken I decided to give their chicken recipe a try, I just have added my slight changes, as always:), to the recipe.
What should I say, the chicken turned out absolutely beautiful, with crispy golden crust outside and moist, succulent meat inside.
What I like about this chicken recipe is that there is no frying involved, so, it makes this simple recipe considerably healthy variation to the KFC fried chicken.
