How to Make Shake N Bake For Chicken

  1. In a food processor, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons paprika, 1 tablespoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme.
  2. Pulse until well combined. Store the mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  3. When ready to cook, dip each chicken piece (about 1.5 lbs total) in 1/2 cup evaporated milk.
  4. Dredge the milk-coated chicken in the Shake N Bake mixture, ensuring each piece is fully coated.
  5. Arrange chicken pieces in a shallow baking dish, skin-side up.
  6. Bake in a preheated 375°F (190°C) oven for 30 minutes.
  7. Lightly mist the chicken with cooking spray.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
