Oven baked chicken

I made this dish the other day which turned out to be sooo delicious. It's so easy to make too. It tastes even better in a chicken salad the day after!

Ingredients:
4 large chicken thighs
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons half and half
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup potato flakes
1 teaspoon garlic salt, optional
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon oil

Directions:

Wash chicken thighs, pat dry. Set aside.

In a small bowl, beat egg and half and half.

In another bowl, combine the bread crumbs, the potato flakes and the garlic salt, if used.

Dip chicken thighs in egg mixture. Then roll the thighs in crumb mixture.

Place chicken thighs in a baking pan. Sprinkle with melted butter and oil.

Bake at 400 for about 35 minutes. Increase temperature to 450.

Bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness of thighs, until chicken is tender and done to your liking. Juices should run clear when pierced with a fork.
