A delightful twist on baked chicken, featuring a crispy potato crust for added flavor and texture.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the chicken inside for even cooking.
Trim any visible fat from the chicken breasts and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Drying the chicken helps the coating adhere better.
Pour the Italian dressing into a bowl and the potato flakes into another bowl.
Use shallow bowls for easier coating.
Dip each chicken breast into the Italian dressing, ensuring it's fully coated.
Allow any excess dressing to drip off before moving to the next step.
Season the chicken with paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Adjust the seasoning to your taste preferences.
Press the chicken into the potato flakes, ensuring an even coating on all sides.
Press firmly to ensure the flakes adhere well.
Place the coated chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
Leave some space between the pieces for even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the crispy potato-coated chicken hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
