Crisp Chicken Potato Bake

[Ol-blue]

This is a great meal for the Dutch oven. Coating only one side of the Chicken makes for a crispy coating.
Enjoy! Debbie

I was rereading the directions because my coating always gets dry and does not form a crust. Then I noticed that you cook the chicken over the potatoes...wow I like that idea.

Do you cook this covered or not? I am thinking the potatoes would get watery from the steam maybe. But does the coating work better with a lid?

I have had some success brushing the chicken with oil but I would just as soon use egg.

That corn is pretty. Is it fresh/frozen or canned?

It would be nice to serve chicken breast with crust rather than sauce all the time.

Yes, it is a nice change. You bake it uncovered. The corn is frozen.

another of your recipes I'm gonna have to try

I have similar recipes for both the chicken and the potatoes but never thought of cooking them together! StirBlue one thing I do when I'm cooking the chicken breaded without a sauce is to melt some butter and drizzle it over the breaded chicken before baking. It gives back some of the fat the boneless-skinless breasts lack to make a good crispy crust.
