Oven Fried Chicken
from Food Network KitchensCook Time: 40 min
Ingredients
1 1/3 cups rice-corn crispy cereal2 1/4 cups broken melba toast
1 tablespoon canola oil2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard4 bone-in, skinless chicken pieces (about 6 ounces each)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a rack on a foil lined baking sheet. Spray the rack generously with cooking spray.
Finely grind the cereal and toasts together in a food processor. Transfer crumbs to a large gallon size plastic bag. Add the oil, salt, cayenne, paprika, and ground pepper and toss to mix thoroughly. Whisk the light mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together in a medium shallow bowl. Add chicken to mayonnaise and turn to coat all the pieces evenly. Drop the chicken into the plastic bag, seal and shake until each piece is evenly coated. Place coated pieces on the prepared rack. Spray the chicken pieces evenly with cooking spray, and bake until the coating crisp and browns and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the pieces registers 160 degrees F, 35-40 minutes.

Cooking spray
12 graham cracker squares (6 full sheets)
2 tablespoons butter, softened1 1/2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
3 tablespoons boiling water1/2 cup, plus 1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour2 egg yolks
1 1/2 cups 1 percent low fat milk1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups sliced banana (3 medium bananas)1/4 cup whipping cream (fat-free or low-fat)
1/2 teaspoon sugarDirections
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. In a food processor, process graham crackers until finely ground. Add butter and 1 tablespoons of water, and process until the crumb clumps together. Press crumb mixture into bottom of pie plate and about 1/2-inch up the sides. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then let cool.
In the meantime, making the filling. Put the gelatin in a small bowl; add 3 tablespoons of boiling water and stir until gelatin is dissolved. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1/3 cup of sugar and the flour. In a medium bowl lightly beat the milk and eggs together. Add the egg and milk mixture to the saucepan and whisk so the flour and sugar dissolve. Cook over a medium heat, stirring constantly, for 10 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil and has thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract and gelatin. Set aside to cool slightly.
Arrange the sliced bananas on the graham cracker crust and pour the pudding on top. Place in the refrigerator until the pudding has set, about 3 hours.
Whip the cream with an electric beater. When it is about halfway done, add 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, then continue whipping until fully whipped. Put the whipped cream in a plastic bag, concentrating it in 1 corner of the bag. Snip that corner off the bag and squeeze the whipped cream out of the bag in a decorative pattern around the pie.
Ok, I've been terribly bad at keeping track of my calories this weekend. However, I did make a healthy meal on Saturday. Oven baked chicken and banana creme pie :) yummo!
I've had a really good weekend so far. Yesterday, me and James went and played gator golf with my good friend Ashley and her husband Adam. Today, we went to church and now I'm at home enjoying this awesome weather and James is out golfing with his friends. I hope ya'll have had a good weekend also!!!
Starting tomorrow I'll be adding exercise into my whole diet thing and I'll post what I do daily and everything.
