Oven-Fried Chicken...In the Crockpot

Today's recipe is an alternative to conventional fried chicken, which I prepared in the crockpot.  You could make yours in the oven if you preferred.



Ingredients:

~chicken legs & thighs, skin removed
~1 cup organic flour
~4 tablespoons flax seeds
~3 teaspoons paprika
~2 tablespoons seasoned salt
~2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
~2 teaspoons minced onion
~1 teaspoon pepper
~1/2 stick organic butter, melted

Directions:

Spray the inside of the crockpot with cooking spray.  Combine flour, flax seeds, and all spices in a large zippered bag.  Drop a couple of pieces of chicken at a time into the bag, reseal and shake to coat pieces.  Layer the coated pieces in the crockpot, then drizzle melted butter over all.  Cook on high 3-4 hours.  (Alternatively, you could bake this dish at 425 degrees for 40 to 50 minutes.)




Enjoy!
