Chicken Shake ’n Bake

This week’s recipe comes from Mrs. William Troyer. She wrote this one down years ago after trying different spice combinations until she found a blend that gave chicken a good flavor without much fuss. It is the kind of recipe that gets passed quietly from one kitchen to another because it works every time and makes a simple meal feel a little more special.   Many Amish families appreciate recipes like this because they save time on evenings when chores run long or when extra guests show up at the table. Mrs. Troyer says the secret is to dip the chicken in oil first or drizzle it with melted butter before baking, which helps the coating crisp nicely in the oven. It is a straightforward, reliable recipe that has earned a place in many homes, and we are glad to share it with you this week.
