A dry Italian coating mix of bread crumbs, cheese, parsley and herbs. Shake it in a bag, coat chicken, turkey or pork before baking, and keep extra mix in the pantry.
Ingredients
- 1 cup bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 2 tablespoons oregano
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Equipment
- zip-top bags
Directions
- Put all the ingredients in a large zip-top bag.
- Close it and shake until evenly mixed.
- Coat chicken, turkey, or pork right before baking; the batch coats about 2 to 3 pounds of meat.
Notes
Dry mix airtight, cool, dry, up to 6 months. Discard leftover coating that touched raw meat. Refrigerate cooked meat within 2 hours; use within 3 to 4 days. Food safety: for pantry storage, use shelf-stable grated cheese and dried parsley; if the cheese is freshly grated or the parsley is fresh, refrigerate the mix.
