Oatmeal Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°; coat a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a shallow bowl or large resealable plastic bag, combine oats, paprika, chili powder, salt if desired, garlic powder, cumin and pepper. Dip chicken in milk, then coat with oat mixture. Place in prepared baking dish. Drizzle with butter. Bake, uncovered, until juices run clear and thermometer reads 170° when inserted into thickest part of chicken, 45-50 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Melt butter over low heat; add garlic and stir.
• 2. In a pie plate, mix oatmeal, Parmesan and thyme. When mixture runs out, mix more as needed; doubling the ingredients does not seem to work as well.
• 3. Rinse and dry chicken breasts; trim any visible fat.
• 4. Dip chicken in butter to coat; then press into the oatmeal mixture until coated. Repeat with remaining breasts.
• 5. Place coated breasts in a prepared casserole dish or baking pan; allow to rest for 10 minutes.
• 6. Drizzle remaining butter evenly over the breasts and bake at 350F for 20-25 minutes.
• 7. Serve hot, with spinach mashed potatoes and steamed vegetable medley or orange-glazed carrots.

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken pieces with lemon juice and 1/4 tsp salt.
• Preheat oven to 200°C.
• In a bowl, combine together oatmeal, chili powder, black pepper powder and the remaining salt.
• In another bowl, lightly whip an egg white with 1 tbsp water.
• Drain chicken well, dip into egg white and then into the oatmeal mixture to coat each piece evenly.
• Place on a well-greased tray.
• Bake for 20 minutes on one side.
• Turn onto the other side and bake for 15 minutes on the other side until the chicken pieces are well browned.
• Serve hot with tomato or chili sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• Place oats in a food processor, and process for 20 seconds or until coarsely ground. Add cheese, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pulse to combine, and place in a shallow bowl.
• Place each chicken breast tender between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Coat both sides of tenders with cooking spray; dredge tenders in oat mixture.
• Place tenders on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes or until browned.
