This Bisquick oven fried chicken recipe is one of my go to dinners when I need something easy that everyone will actually eat.

The oven does all the work and the chicken comes out tender and juicy with a crunchy crust that tastes just like fried chicken but without all the mess. It is perfect for a weeknight meal but also special enough to serve when company comes over. Since it is baked instead of fried you get all that great flavor with less fat which makes it a little healthier for my family.

🥘Ingredients

For the Chicken

1 1/2 cups Bisquick mix
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
3 to 4 pounds chicken pieces (drumsticks, thighs, breasts)

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on the baking sheet if you have one for extra crispiness.
2In a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, combine the Bisquick mix, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Shake or stir to mix well.
3Pour the vegetable oil or melted butter into a separate shallow dish.
4Dip each piece of chicken in the oil, coating all sides. Then place the chicken in the bag with the Bisquick mixture. Seal the bag and shake until the chicken is evenly coated. Alternatively, you can dredge the chicken in the mixture in the shallow dish.
5Place the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet or wire rack, skin side up if using skin on pieces.
6Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Bisquick Oven Fried Chicken

1. Can I use boneless chicken for this recipe?

Yes you can. Boneless chicken breasts or thighs work well. Just reduce the baking time to about 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

2. Do I have to use a wire rack?

Using a wire rack helps the chicken get crispy on all sides because air can circulate underneath. If you do not have one you can place the chicken directly on a foil lined baking sheet but the bottom may be a little less crispy.

3. Can I make this recipe dairy free?

Yes. Use a dairy free margarine or a vegetable oil like canola or avocado oil instead of butter. The Bisquick original mix does contain buttermilk so check the label if you need a completely dairy free option.

4. How do I store leftovers?

Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat place it in a 350 degree F oven for about 10 minutes to help the coating stay crispy.

5. Can I use this coating for other meats or vegetables?

Absolutely. This Bisquick coating works great on fish fillets, pork chops, or even vegetables like zucchini or cauliflower. Adjust the baking time based on what you are cooking.
