I’ve been spending the day baking and thought I would share some recent recipes we’ve enjoyed.
Potato Flake Chicken
Convenient potato flakes and Parmesan cheese flavor chicken breasts with a crispy golden coating.
Ingredients:
* 2/3 cup mashed potato flakes
* 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
* 1 teaspoon garlic salt
* 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (8 ounces each)
* 1/3 cup butter, melted
Directions:
In a shallow bowl, combine the potato flakes, Parmesan cheese and garlic salt. Dip chicken in butter, then coat with potato flake mixture.
Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until juices run clear. Broil 4 in. from the heat for 3-5 minutes or until lightly browned. Yield: 4 servings.
Obviously this is not a large enough recipe for our family. I doubled everything. Okay, I didn’t really measure but just “eye-balled” the potato flakes and cheese. The extra butter and coating were drizzled on top of the chicken. I had chicken tenders on hand so that is what I used. I adjusted the time a little to allow for the smaller pieces of chicken. I was glad to find a recipe that didn’t require flour in the coating. Easy and tasty.

sounds yummy to me. I only want one. Please.
Love you dear, Aunt Kate
Yummy! I make a similar one… mine has a packet of dry ranch dressing and corn flakes instead of the potato flakes. We love it. Sadly, I even scrape the pan when I’m cleaning up. All the yummy gook is in there.
Cindy, yours sounds really good, too! I think it’s supper time; just reading these makes my tummy growl!
