How to Make Oven Fried Chicken And French Fries
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 egg white, and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard until smooth.
- In a food processor, combine 1 cup melba toast crumbs, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper. Pulse until you have coarse breadcrumbs.
- Dip each chicken breast in the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dredge in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere. Repeat to ensure a thick, even coating.
- Place the breaded chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 3 minutes.
- Lightly spray the tops of the chicken breasts with cooking spray.
- Bake for another 5 minutes, then flip the chicken breasts.
- Lightly spray the tops again with cooking spray and bake for a further 6 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
- This recipe works well with any piece of chicken – use skinless legs, thighs, or breasts.
- While the chicken is baking, remove the potato strips from the iced water and pat them completely dry with paper towels.
- Place the potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt in a large resealable plastic bag or a lidded container. Spray with cooking oil for about 3 seconds.
- Shake the bag vigorously to evenly coat the potatoes with oil and salt.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they don't touch. Lightly spray with cooking oil.
- Bake for 7 minutes, then flip the fries. Bake for another 7 minutes, flip again, and bake for a final 5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the oven-fried chicken and crispy fries immediately.
