  • Minutes to Prepare:
  • Number of Servings: 1
Ingredients
1/2 cup Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Oatmeal (uncooked)Italian Seasoning to tasteGarlic Powder to taste2 tbs Paprika Black pepper to tastePinch of Sea SaltWater or Skim MilkCan't Believe it's Not Butter Spray
Directions
-Set oven to 350
-Cut your chicken breasts, or pork chops or anything you wanted breaded and put aside.
- With a blender, put in the Oatmeal, dry and turn into a powder. [I generally make huge batches of the powder and season as I use it. ]
- Then once you have your powder, set aside enough for whatever it is you're breading. [I always bread 5 oz of meat for dinner and 5 oz for lunch next day at one time]
-Add italian seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, sea salt and mix with your hand or a fork
-Dip your chicken or pork into water or skim milk and roll in your 'breading' mixture [or do it like shake and bake]
-Spray a pan for the oven with I Can't Believe it's Not Butter spray (or cooking spray if you don't have this)
-Spray your chicken breasts or pork on both sides lightly but enough to make the oatmeal look darker
-Place in pan and bake in the oven for 20 minutes and flip meat
-Continue baking for another 10-15 minutes (depending on meat thickness)

You now have "breaded" baked chicken and it looks browned like regular breading because of the paprika!

You can also do everything above, on a frying pan too if you want a different type of flavor.
