Yesterday on the Dr. Oz show, Paula Deen demonstrated an oven-baked buttermilk chicken recipe. It had been modified to be a low-fat, low-calorie meal. I cannot find the recipe on the Dr. Oz site. Could you give this to me? Thank you.

I am alergict to eggs. Can not use mustard because yellow dye is just like eating eggs. What can I substitute?

I followed your recipe almost to the tee. Didn't use thyme. I don't know what went wrong. The panko did not get crispy. I even raised by oven to 425. I would like to know if there is a difference in the Panko's. I use to buy the Japanese brand (very expensive)I am now purchasing 4seasons brand is there a difference? I loved the flavor wish it was crispier.

Okay Paula - You made my snow/ice bound crew happy campers! We had the best gluten free Oven Fried Chicken. Fried chicken has been one of the things we have had to go without, but now we have a new favorite! We just switched the panko with crushed brand name corn square cereal (that is gf!)and the results were incredible! The cereal was just a tad sweet and it really made the mustard and freshly grated parm snap! Even better - it was a breeze to throw together and slap in the oven! Bless you for bringing a little extra happiness to our table tonight!

This is sooooo good!!! I have made it several times, It's quick and easy and it comes out soooo moist. There usually isn't any left over. But when there is it is great for breakfast on a homemade buttermilk bisquit (or Pillsbury Grands Bisquits)
