Hubby Lovin’ Chicken

This has been one of the most popular recipes from our Trim Healthy Table Cookbook. While
the title does say “Hubby Lovin’ . . . we Mamas adore this too! Our original recipe called for
only bone in chicken but some of our readers started using it with boneless breasts or
even pork chops with fantastic results. This Hubby Lovin' spice mix has come to be
known as the TH Shake n Bake in the Trim Healthy community. Once you’ve made this a
few times you may want to make up large batches of the seasonings listed here and store in
a jar for quicker meal prep. (Note: We as authors don’t use pork in our recipes due to some
Biblical convictions we have but we don’t expect all our readers to feel the same way). This recipe is found on page 218 of the Trim Healthy Table Cookbook.

Description

This chicken is man-pleasing stuff, but we of the fairer sex devour our fair share, too. This recipe is a family-serve recipe that feeds 6 to 8 people. (Halve the recipe if your family is smaller or make in full and freeze half.) This recipe is found in the "Oven-Baked Meats & Fish" section, page 218 of the Trim Healthy Table Cookbook.

Ingredients
  • coconut oil cooking spray
  • 4 lbs chicken drumsticks (4 to 6 pounds; drumsticks, wings, thighs, or any other bone-in chicken pieces; thawed if frozen)
  • 6 Tbs butter (3/4 of a stick; melted)
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese (grated Parmesan cheese; we use powder-style from the green can)
  • 1/4 cup TH Nutritional Yeast (if you’re out of this, use 1 full cup Parmy)
  • 2 1/2 Tbs parsley flakes (dried)
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp oregano (dried)
  • 1 tsp TH Mineral Salt (rounded teaspoon)
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray 2 large shallow pans with coconut oil.
  2. 2
    Put the chicken in a large bowl, pour the melted butter over it, and mix thoroughly with your hands so each piece is coated well.
  3. 3
    On a dinner plate, mix together the Parmesan, nutritional yeast, parsley flakes, paprika, garlic powder, oregano, salt, black pepper, and cayenne. Roll each piece of butter-glazed chicken in the seasonings.
  4. 4
    Place the chicken on the prepared pans and bake for 50 minutes, then broil on high for just a few minutes, until the tops are nice and brown (keep a watch so it doesn’t burn).
Note

MAKE A FAMILY MEAL:

  • For the weight-loss plan, enjoy the chicken with any yummy S-style non-starchy veggie, and don’t forget your side salad. For veggies, try Killer Green Beans (page 261), or Green Fries (page 262), or simply steam up some broccoli and toss it with butter, salt, and pepper.
  • Growing children can have a healthy carb side such as whole milk, sprouted-grain bread and butter, or a baked potato with butter.
