INSTRUCTIONS
Low-fat "fried" chicken bakes to crispy comfort food. The chicken bakes in
a hot oven. Dipping it in buttermilk keeps the coating light. Hot pepper
sauce brings out the full taste of the chicken and allows each person to
adjust the degree of heat.
1. Adjust oven rack to highest position.
2. Preheat oven to 425F degrees.
3. Cover a baking sheet with foil and place in oven to warm.
4. Pound chicken flat with the bottom of a saucepan or the palm of your
hand to 1/4 inch thick.
5. Place buttermilk and hot pepper sauce in small bowl; add chicken.
6. In another bowl, combine cornmeal, thyme and Parmesan cheese and salt
and pepper to taste. Remove chicken from buttermilk; roll in cornmeal
mixture to coat.
7. Cut tomatoes in half; season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Remove baking sheet from oven; coat with olive oil spray. Place chicken
and tomatoes on baking sheet; spray them with oil.
9. Bake for 10 minutes or until chicken is done.
