How to Make Baked Chicken Continentale
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Rinse 4 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken pieces (thighs, drumsticks, or breasts) thoroughly and pat completely dry with paper towels.
- Remove any visible excess fat from the chicken pieces and discard.
- Season both sides of the chicken generously with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Add extra garlic salt to taste!
- In a pie plate, combine 1 1/2 cups breadcrumbs, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tbsp dried herbs (Italian blend recommended), and 2 tbsp Dijon mustard. Mix well.
- In a small bowl, melt 1/4 cup butter and mix in 2 cloves minced garlic.
- Brush the melted garlic butter generously over both sides of the chicken pieces.
- Coat both sides of the chicken evenly with the crumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
- Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in a large baking pan, ensuring they are several inches apart.
- Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
