- Wash and clean the chicken and pat dry with a kitchen towel to absorb all moisture.
- Make deep gashes on each piece and marinate it with the ingredients listed under Ingredients for the Dry Spice Rub.
- Keep aside for at least an hour.
- Take a large mixing bowl and mix together all ingredients listed under Ingredients for the Seasoned Crumbs.
- Make sure to mix through well so that all the ingredients are combined evenly.
- Keep aside.
- Take another bowl and beat together the eggs and milk.
- Keep aside.
- Preheat oven at 180C.
- Drench the marinated chicken pieces one by one in the egg and milk mixture and coat well with seasoned crumb mix.
- Give it a little pat and a shake to hold the crust together and repeat the same procedure (dipping and coating with seasoned crumb mix) a second time.
- Arrange the crumb coated chicken pieces on a greased baking tray
- Drizzle a little oil on each piece of chicken and bake in the oven.
- Bake for five to seven minutes at 200C and then turn down the heat back to 180C and bake for fifteen minutes
- After fifteen minutes, take out the baking tray with the chicken and drizzle some more oil on each piece.
- This step is crucial to avoid drying of the chicken.
- It helps to keep the chicken moist and succulent.
- Once some more oil has gone onto each piece of chicken, place the tray back in the oven and bake till you get a nice golden crispy crust on the outside and the meat is juicy and cooked through
- Serve this Crispy Baked Crumb Chicken which has rested for a minute or two with some deliciously Creamy Cabbage and Carrot Coleslaw
