Oven-Fried Chicken

Fried chicken is a mess to make. After watching an episode of the Barefoot Contessa, I decided to try it. It’s called Oven Fried Chicken, which you fry in the beginning and then finish it in the oven. It’s not nearly as messy as the full fried version. It's crispy and moist and goes really well with mashed potatoes.

Green Bean and Barley Chicken Casserole

This Green Bean and Barley Chicken Casserole is a recipe from Country Living. It seems that most Southern recipes have a crunchy topping. This one is particularly delicious because it uses cheese crackers.

Baked Chicken Wings 2 Ways

Chicken Wings 2 Ways is a great appetizer for any party. Traditional chicken wings are pretty spicy. I added a non-spicy version. You can divide the recipe in half and make both to satisfy everyone. The key to crispy chicken wings is boiling them first. These seem counter-intuitive, but it works. Make sure you pat them dry before roasting. Moisture is the enemy of crispiness!
