Shake 'n Bake the Healthy Way

I love when my clients give me ideas for posts. Today a client was looking for a way to crunch up her chicken and to keep in the moisture - "You know like Shake n Bake." Yeppers - while I am more of plain cook, I do like to have some different ideas to switch things up. Here is a clean, easy shake 'n bake recipe that can be done in the oven or even air fryer.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken drumsticks or a mix of chicken pieces

• 0.25 cup almond flour

• 1.25 teaspoon kosher salt

• 0.25 teaspoon ground pepper

• 1 teaspoons paprika

• 0.5 teaspoon cumin

• 0.5 teaspoon sage

• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder

• 0.25 teaspoon onion powder

• olive oil

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 450F.

• In large zipper storage bag, combine all ingredients except chicken and oil.

• Line 2 13×9-inch pans with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

• Drizzle olive oil over each pan.

• Place a couple pieces of chicken in the seasoning bag and shake until coated.

• Place coated chicken on lined pans.

• Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Turn over and bake 15-20 minutes longer.

Note: This can be done in the air fryer per the air fryer directions.
