Ingredients: | |
Vegetable oil, for baking sheet | |
8 slices | white bread |
1 cup | buttermilk |
1 teaspoon | hot-pepper sauce |
Salt | |
pepper | |
3/4 cup | grated Parmesan cheese, (2 1/2 ounces) |
1 teaspoon | dried thyme |
4 pounds | chicken parts, (preferably legs, thighs, and wings), rinsed and patted dry |
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Generously rub a baking sheet with oil. In a food processor, pulse bread until it turns into coarse crumbs.
In a large bowl, stir together buttermilk, hot-pepper sauce, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. In a separate bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan, thyme, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
Place chicken in the buttermilk mixture, turning to coat evenly. Working with one piece at a time, remove chicken from liquid, letting excess drip back into bowl; dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat evenly. Place coated chicken pieces on prepared baking sheet.
Bake until chicken is golden brown, about 35 minutes.Note: Leave enough space between the chicken pieces so that they crisp evenly all the way around.
