Spiced Up, Oven-Fried Chicken

This spiced oven-fried chicken offers all the satisfying crunch of traditional fried chicken without the need for deep frying. By using a clever coating of crushed cornflakes seasoned with smoked paprika and black pepper, you achieve a wonderfully crisp texture and a deep, savoury flavour. It is an excellent high-protein option for those seeking a lighter alternative to takeaway favourites while still delivering a comforting, golden finish that the whole family will enjoy.

Ideal for busy weeknights or a relaxed Sunday lunch, this recipe is designed to be straightforward and fuss-free. Serving three chickens makes it perfect for large gatherings or meal prepping for the week ahead. Simply pair the crispy pieces with a fresh green salad, some roasted root vegetables, or a dollop of cool soured cream to balance the gentle warmth of the spices.
