Ingredients For breaded chicken with mustard and dry sherry

  • 1/2 c
    reduced soy sauce
  • 1/2 c
    dry sherry
  • 1 Tbsp
    worchestershire sauce
  • 1 Tbsp
    tabasco sauce
  • 2 Tbsp
    dijon mustard
  • 1/4 c
    canola oil
  • 1 pkg
    whole chicken (3 1/2 - 4 pound) cut into 8 pieces: each breast split w wings attached, 2 drumsticks and 2 thighs
  • 1 1/2 c
    plain dried bread crumbs
  • 5 Tbsp
    unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp
    kosher salt (to your taste)
  • 1-2 slice
    lemon wedges

How To Make breaded chicken with mustard and dry sherry

  • 1
    Marinate the chicken: In a large bowl, wisk together the soy sauce, sherry, Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco, mustard and canola.
  • 2
    With the exception of the wings, remove the skin from the chicken.
  • 3
    Submerge all the chicken pieces in the marinade. Don't be afraid to get your hands dirty. Turn the chicken pieces around in the marinade so each side is coated. Put a piece of plastic wrap on top of the chicken and add a heavy weight, such as a small plate to ensure that the chicken is submerged in the marinade. Refrigerate for up to 3 hrs or overnight
  • 4
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix together the bread crumbs and butter. Season with a few large pinches of salt
  • 5
    Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade, allowing any access liquid to drip off and roll them in the bread crumbs.
  • 6
    Arrange them in a single layer (without crowding) on a baking sheet with a fitted rack. Elevating makes the chicken avoid a soggy underside.
  • 7
    Bake until the pieces are cooked through with an internal temperature of 155 to 160 degrees and the bread crumbs are golden brown. 25-30 minutes
  • 8
    Preheat the broiler. Put the chicken under the broiler for a minute or 2 watching to further brown the bread crumbs. Serve with lemon wedges
