Oven Fried Chicken
This oven “fried” chicken is extra crispy from a secret ingredient – bran flakes! It’s moist yet still light since little oil is used. You can also make it in the air fryer!
Ingredients
- 6 large bone-in drumsticks (skin removed)
- 2 1/2 cups bran flakes ((use gluten-free corn flakes for GF))
- 3 tsp kosher salt (less if you are using regular salt)
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp fresh black pepper
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 5 tbsp Hellman's light mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- Oil spray
