OVEN FRIED CHICKEN LEGS 
6 chicken legs and thighs, skinned and trimmed of fat
Skim or low fat milk
1/2 c. plain bread crumbs
Vegetable oil spray
1/3 c. Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp. dried parsley flakes, crumbled
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Place chicken pieces in shallow bowl or pan; cover with milk. Let soak for 15 minutes or longer in refrigerator.

In a shallow bowl, combine bread crumbs, cheese, parsley flakes, and pepper. Dip soaked chicken pieces, one leg at a time, in breading mixture, coating on all sides. Set the coated pieces on a greased baking surface, preferably non-stick. Lightly spray chicken with vegetable oil spray.

Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 45 minutes. Delicious and simple with the flavor of fried chicken, but without the calories.

This recipe had great flavor! I have tried other oven "fried" recipes before, but this one is the best so far. I'm not even a big fan of parmesan cheese, and this was still fantastic!
