Baked Chicken

Johnny
Kind of like fried chicken but baked. This is the way I always make it now.
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 20 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 3 lb fryer chickens, cut into 8 pieces each

Instructions
 

  • In a large roasting pan (or two 9x13 pans), in a 425° oven, melt the butter or margarine.
  • Mix flour, salt, paprika and pepper in a heavy-duty plastic bag; shake chicken pieces in the bag, a few at a time, until evenly coated.
  • In the pan (s), place the chicken, skin side down, in the melted butter; bake 30 minutes.
  • Turn chicken pieces and bake 15 minutes more until pieces are fork-tender.
  • I usually make gravy from the de-greased pan juices, using some or all of the leftover flour and some chicken stock.
