This copycat recipe is the perfect combination of bread crumbs, cornmeal, and a handful of savory herbs and spices.

Ingredients To Make Shake & Bake

Seasoned Breadcrumbs: Breadcrumbs are the foundation for a good shake-and-bake recipe. A little bit of cornmeal adds flavor and keeps the coating extra crispy. Seasoning: The secret to this coating is in the seasonings. I use a blend I always have on hand but feel free to swap it up with your favorites. Chicken: Any chicken pieces work perfectly with Shake ‘n Bake! Breasts, legs, thighs, chicken tenders, and especially drumsticks will come out flavorful and juicy with a classic crunch.

Homemade Shake ‘n Bake mix tastes way better than the store-bought version!

Storing Shake and Bake Chicken

Keep leftover shake and bake chicken in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat pieces in the air fryer for the best, crispiest exterior. Freeze cooled chicken for up to 3 months, thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
