Amish Baked Chicken

Amish baked chicken is just wow!!!! Crispy, buttery just unbelievably delicious. We had never cooked Amish recipes before and we found this recipe in an ecookbook and adapted it and it turned out to be a winner. As I said there is lots of butter used but it is definitely better than buying take-away chicken or something like that. Amish cuisine is very natural, no additives, no sweeteners and the like. Give it a go and I am quite sure that you will do it again. It is super easy to prepare and cook. for 4 people you will need...
  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • ½ cup (65g) plain flour
  • 2 teaspoons sweet paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dry yellow mustard powder
  • 3 teaspoons salt
  • 250g (about 1 cup) butter, melted

How to...
  1. Preheat the 180°C/350°F.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients well in a plastic bag or in a large bowl. 
  3. Coat the cut up chicken parts with the mixture. 
  4. In an oven dish, pour the melted butter and carefully place the chicken parts in the dish next to each other. Bake in the preheated oven until golden and cooked, about an hour to an hour and a half or until cooked. 
  5. Serve hot with a side of green beans.

Enjoy!!

    1. Hello there, 250g butter is equivalent to around 1 cup or 2 sticks. If you are using 350g that will be a bit less than 1 and a half cups. Hope this helps. Thank you.

    2. Hi Karen,

      350g is equal to 3 sticks of butter, 250g is equal to about 2 sticks. The 180 C is equivalent to about 350F.

      If I may make a suggestion based on many years of saving recipes as well as posting them, get yourself a unit converter program for your PC. There are many free ones, just Google for them. Not all are easy to use so you may want to try a few out until you find one that works well for you. :-) Jim Rancourt aka OwlOak
