Brush the chicken with melted butter and then roll it around in the mixture a few times, making sure to fully cover it.

Put the chicken on a pan and preheat the oven to 350F.

Once the oven is heated up, put the chicken in and set the timer for 25-30 minutes, depending on how crispy you want the crust to be.

At around 5 minutes, take the chicken out and drizzle the crust in melted butter.

Don't use too much.

This also adds some flavor to the crust.

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
