Recipe: Crispy Baked Barbecued Chicken

Crispy Baked Barbecued Chicken

1/2 cup fine dry bead crumbs
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp celery seed
1/8 tsp cayenne
1 lb chicken breast without skin
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine

This is recipe for crispy barbecued chicken but I use the same breading on pork chops and it is very good. It comes from a local Homemakers Club.

Combine bread crumbs, brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, dry mustard, celery seed, and cayenne.

Lightly coat each piece of chicken with the melted butter, then roll in the crumb mixture to coat. Arrange chicken in a shallow baking pan and sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture.

Bake uncovered in a 375 degree oven for about 50 minutes. Serve.
