1 chicken, cut into pieces, or 6 chicken legs & thighs, skinned & trimmed of fat
Milk (skim or low-fat) for soaking the chicken
1/2 c. plain dry bread crumbs
1/3 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. dried parsley flakes, crumbled
1/4 tsp. black pepper
Vegetable oil spray for chicken, if desired

Place the chicken pieces in a shallow bowl or pan, and cover them with the milk. Let the chicken soak 15 minutes or longer (refrigerate, if necessary, to keep cold). In a shallow bowl or pie plate, combine the bread crumbs, cheese, parsley flakes, and pepper. One by one, dip the soaked chicken pieces in the breading mixture, coating the chicken on all sides. Set the coated chicken pieces on a greased baking sheet. Lightly spray the chicken with vegetable-oil spray, if desired. Bake the chicken in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 45 minutes.
