Baked Fried Chicken

Baked Fried Chicken
I am pretty sure someone has discovered the KFC secret recipe! It is DEAD ON! It is also baked...not fried and there isn't any skin! So you get to enjoy the taste of the seasoning, instead of pulling it off because of the slimy skin!

This is super easy and you are TOTALLY going to love it!

Place thawed chicken breast tenderloin strips in a bowl of milk. Let soak for 20-30 min.

Mix in a Gallon Size Ziploc or Large Bowl:
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 T Season All
3/4 tsp Pepper
1 c. Flour
2 tsp. Paprika

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut 1/2 stick of butter into a few pieces and place in a 9x13 pan. Melt butter in pre-heated oven.

Spread melted butter around the bottom of the pan. Lightly spray the pan, if needed, to make sure that there are no dry spots.

Shake excess milk off of chicken and completely coat each piece with the seasoning mix. You can either shake the chicken in the bag, until coated, or dip each piece in the bowl until coated. Place each piece of chicken in the pan.

Cook for 20 min. Turn each piece of chicken and continue cooking for 20 more minutes, or until cooked through. ENJOY!

Nutty Cinnamon Roll Apple Cake

Nutty Cinnamon Roll Apple Cake

from http://www.nutmegnanny.com/2013/03/29/nutty-cinnamon-roll-apple-cake/
yield: 4 - 6 SERVINGS
prep time: 20 MINUTES
cook time: 35 MINUTES
total time: 60 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS: 1-1/2 cups small diced apples, peeled (divided) 1 (12.5 ounce) can cinnamon rolls with icing 3/4 cup chopped pecans 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons light corn syrup Adapted slightly from Pillsbury

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a glass 9-inch pie plate with non-stick spray. Put 1 cup diced apples into the bottom of pan, set aside.

Open cinnamon rolls and set icing aside.

Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters and add to a medium sized bowl. Add in remaining 1 cup diced apples and 3/4 cup chopped pecans.

In a small bowl add melted butter, dark brown sugar and light corn syrup. Stir until combined and add to bowl with cinnamon rolls, apples and pecans.

Mix gently to combine all ingredients. The nuts will stick together a bit but try your best to keep everything evenly mixed.

 Top apples in the pie plate with the cinnamon roll mixture. Try to make the top as even as possible.

 Bake for about 35 minutes until the top is golden brown and the cinnamon rolls are cooked through.

 Let cake rest in the pan for 5 minutes and flip over onto a plate or cake stand. Take metal lid off the icing and microwave for about 20 seconds until the icing is melted and pourable. Drizzle over the cake and devour!
