    ritz butter crackers, crushed finely

    garlic juice
  • salt and pepper to taste

    real butter, cut in slices

    italian seasoning

How To Make butter fried chicken

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • 2
    Soak chicken pieces in a medium bowl or resealable plastic bag with the melted butter for 20-30 minutes in the refridgerator.
  • 3
    Put all dry ingredients in a large resealable plastic bag and shake to mix well.
  • 4
    Coat each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, and place in plastic bag with the dry ingredients. Shake and mix well to coat the chicken completely.
  • 5
    Arrange coated chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place pieces of butter around the chicken
  • 6
    Bake for a total of 25-30 minutes in the oven (or until juices run clear). For a really crispy product (the bottoms can get a bit soggy cooking in teh baking pan), I remove the chicken 1/2 way through the cooking process, and place them on a cookie cooling rack placed over a cookie baking sheet so that the bottom crisps up a bit. Other times I cook the entire time in the baking dish, if I'm being lazy. I love it either way!!!

    This is awesome served with either twice baked smashed potatoes or butter noodles, with veggies on the side.
