Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Oven "Fried" Chicken

Make sure you've got plenty of dipping sauces for these! Not only are these terrific for dinner, but they'd be great on a party platter, too! Save yourself the trouble and mess of frying chicken and try these instead! You won't miss the "fried" taste at all!! The panko bread crumbs give these a nice crunch so have at it!

Oven "Fried" Chicken



1 cup panko bread crumbs
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 - 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup flour
2 eggs ~ beaten
1 pound chicken tenders

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine panko bread crumbs, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper.

Roll each chicken tender in flour then in the beaten egg.

Dredge in panko bread crumbs and place on prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 20 - 30 minutes until done.

Here we go! I ended up using TWO eggs. Only one is pictured here, though.
