When ready to bake or fry a batch of chicken, melt butter and dip chicken pieces in butter (or beat an egg and dip chicken in the egg wash). Chopped fresh parsley may be added to the egg wash. (Cooks Note: Wash and pat dry chicken pieces in advance and season lightly with salt and pepper).

Roll chicken in dry mixture to coat. If desired, chicken may be dipped again and then rolled in bread crumbs.

Fry pieces in hot oil (about 360°F) or bake in a 350°F oven until golden and cooked through.

This makes enough mixture for about 2 or 3 chickens.
