Half-Fried Chicken and Gravy

The original title of this post was Fried Chicken and Gravy. BUT...it's only kind of fried. It's fried and then baked. And it doesn't taste exactly like straight up fried chicken so...I changed the name to better represent what we're working with here.

Whatever you call it, I will admit that it wasn't quite as crisp as I wanted and...I don't know. The chicken itself wasn't my favorite (but that's just me, goodness knows I'm particular)--but the GRAVY. Oh mama the gravy is goooood.

The gravy is rich, and creamy, and so perfectly flavorful. And when you serve it with chicken and over some mashed potatoes, you are in comfort food heaven. Rainy or cold day? Make some of this. Had a fight with someone you care about? Make some of this. A beloved character on a TV show you love dies? DEFINITELY make some of this!

Oven Fried Chicken

I was going through my cache' of photos of food whose recipes I still needed to post, and I almost couldn't believe I hadn't shared this one yet. This is one of my favorite, easy, healthy chicken dishes that I discovered way back when I first started the blog. And, since so many people always resolve to be healthier in the new year, I thought now was the perfect time to introduce you to this oven fried chicken! It honestly does taste like it has been fried, but it is just baked in the oven with a mere 1 tbsp. of butter! That's it! It's tasty and quick and guiltless! EAT!
