This is adapted from a southern fried chicken recipe by Damon Lee Fowler. I haven't tried it yet, just posting it for safe-keeping.

Ingredients:

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 cup progresso plain bread crumbs

1 clove chopped garlic

1/2 cup egg substitute, equivalent to 2 eggs (egg beaters)

1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

1/8 teaspoon ground mace

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground cumin

1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

1/4 teaspoon paprika

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried basil

1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried sage

1/2 teaspoon crumbled dried thyme

2 bay leaves, ground to a powder (use a spice mill or mortar and pestle)

Directions:

1. Pre-heat oven to 400° degrees (set oven rack to lowest position).
2. Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
3. Whisk together Egg Beaters and garlic and let stand while you prepare the chicken.
4. Mix together spices and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl.
5. Wash and trim chicken breasts.
6. Dip chicken in egg.

8. Shake off excess breading and place on baking sheet.
9. Bake uncovered for about 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
