The Oatmeal Doesn't Work
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I made the recipe as per instructions. The mustard and spices were all great- I think I'll use mustard in future chicken... recipes... but the oatmeal is GROSS. It just tastes like toasted oatmeal on your chicken. Will not be using it again. I think if I make this again, I will just go straight for bread crumbs.Read more

Very Good
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Well, I will admit that I used bread crumbs as I was actually out of oatmeal, but it still turned out very good. My little... critics (5 kids) all loved the chicken and then add corn on the cob and you have a country meal. Read more

The Oats are Out
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

Do yourself a favor and dont ruin your chicken with oats. They completely took over the flavor and ruined the chicken for... us..Stick to Panko and then the recipe will be edible.Read more

Yum Yum - LOVED it!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used Panko crumbs instead of the oats. That is the only change. My hubby loved it. We are not exactly the cooked peas... type so I made a wonderful salad with roasted raw peanuts, pear, romaine lettus, roma tomatoe, cucumber, red onion and avacado. I made a light dressing with balsamic vinegar and a wonderful olive oil. Tossed and sprinkled with a bit of parmesian. Yum yum dinner.Read more

Best I've tried (w/ a few changes)
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Too spicy or bland? Obviously, everyone has different tastes. :) I have tried several oven-fried chicken recipes over... the past several years and keep coming back to this one. My Gram made the best fried chicken ever, but I've been searching for a healthier alternative. Although not a huge fan of Dijon mustard, it really adds a nice taste to this recipe (brushing the chicken with the mustard helps the crumb coating to adhere a lot better than using just plain milk or oil). I have discovered a few things that took this recipe from "good" to "best" (for us). First, the oats were replaced by panko crumbs. This made for an infinitely crispier coating. I didn't use the dry mustard in the coating, but did add a dash of ground chipotle pepper for a little heat and smoky flavor. For the smoke with no heat, used smoked paprika for half of the amount of regular paprika. And, after the chicken is finished in the oven, I place it under the broiler for a very short time in order to make the coating even crispier. But watch it carefully so it doesn't burn! I think that this may be the winner in my quest for a great oven-fried chicken recipe. Give it a try.Read more
