Cookbook author Sara Moulton loves that this kid-approved oven fried chicken recipe from cookbook author Jean Anderson can be made ahead + served at any temperature.
Because of that, this is the one recipe Sara wishes she wrote. She learned how to make it from her mentor and friend Jean Anderson. It's wildly popular with everyone who tries it and is great served hot, warm or cold.
Pro Tip from Sara: "You can buy breadcrumbs at a supermarket, but it's so easy to make your own that it's ridiculous not to! You can use them right away or freeze them. If you freeze them, you need to dry them out in a 350°F oven for about 5 minutes."
How to make homemade breadcrumbs: To make 2 ½ to 3 cups of homemade breadcrumbs, cut off and discard the crusts from 10 slices of homemade-style white bread, then tear the bread into large pieces. Place in a food processor or blender and process until very fine.
Round out the meal by serving the oven fried chicken with Lightened-Up Southern Style Collard Greens and Katie Lee's All-American Potato Salad.
