Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can Regular, 2% or Fat Free Carnation® Evaporated Milk
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar or lemon juice
  • 8 pieces of chicken with the bone (breasts, thighs, legs, wings)
  • 2 cups Robin Hood® All Purpose Flour
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Combine Carnation Milk® and vinegar in a large bowl. It will thicken up. Add chicken pieces and make sure the pieces are covered in the milk mixture. Cover well and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Place flour in a shallow dish. Remove chicken from milk. Dip chicken pieces into flour, shaking off any excess. Place on prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake in preheated oven 50 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Turn chicken over after 30 minutes and continue baking.

Footnotes

  • Variations:
  • Add 1 tbsp (15 mL) smoked paprika and 1/4 tsp (1 mL) cayenne pepper to Carnation Milk® mixture.
  • Add 2 tsp (10 mL) curry powder to Carnation Milk® mixture.
  • Add 2 tsp (10 mL) dried oregano and 1 clove garlic minced, to Carnation Milk® mixture.
  • Tips:
  • Chicken is cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Using an instant read thermometer takes all the guesswork away.
