Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Step 5

Combine all the breading ingredients and remove the pieces from the brine, dredging each piece and pressing down for a thorough coating.

Step 6

Place coated pieces on a greased cookie sheet.

Step 7

Lightly spray the top of each piece with cooking spray so that the breading is lightly moist., or drizzle some melted butter or oil over each piece.
