    Source of Recipe


    Cooking Light, JANUARY 2009


    Recipe Introduction


    Oven-frying is a great way to trim some fat from this comfort food favorite. Serve with store-bought dinner rolls and homemade coleslaw.


    List of Ingredients


    • Coleslaw:
    • 4 cups packaged cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw
    • 3 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
    • 1 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
    • 1/8 teaspoon salt
    • Chicken:
    • 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
    • 4 (8-ounce) bone-in chicken breast halves, skinned
    • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
    • 1/3 cup cracker meal
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 2 tablespoons butter


    Instructions


    1. To prepare coleslaw, combine first 6 ingredients; toss to coat. Cover and chill.
    2. Preheat oven to 425°.
    3. To prepare chicken, combine buttermilk and chicken in a shallow dish, turning to coat.
    4. Combine flour and cracker meal in a shallow dish. Transfer chicken from buttermilk to a work surface. Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Working with one chicken breast half at a time, dredge chicken in flour mixture, shaking off excess; set aside. Repeat procedure with remaining chicken and flour mixture.
    5. Melt butter in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to pan, meat side down; cook 4 minutes or until golden brown. Turn chicken over, and bake at 425° for 32 minutes or until a thermometer registers 165°.
