Baked Colonel Sanders Style Chicken Seasoning
"Over the years I've tried lots of baked chicken recipes & this is the one that I always come back to. The base seasoning mix is enough to coat 4 chickens...you measure out enough for however many chickens you are making, mix with flour & sugar then store the rest of the base mix for next time."

Great flavor! The spice blend is wonderful and very tasty. I also love the result of marinating the chicken in the Italian dressing. I halved the seasoning base mix and it was enough for about 10 chicken legs when mixed with the flour and brown sugar. The only recommendation I have is to put the chicken on a rack over a foil-lined cookie sheet, so the chicken won't sit in the juices that leak out while the chicken is cooking. Thanks for a great and flavorful recipe!

I love cooking & after I retired I got back into gardening. I also do canning, dehydrate, & freeze food all summer. In winter I spin, weave, knit, crochet & sew.
