poultry

1 cup bread crumbs
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoon fresh parsley -- chopped
2 garlic cloves -- chopped
1 salt -- to taste

* You will need 2 small chicken fryers, 2-3 pounds each. Cut the chickens into serving-sized pieces. 1. In a small bowl combine bread crumbs, cheese, parsley, garlic which has been finely chopped but not minced, salt and black pepper. Place this mixture in a shallow bowl. 2. Place 1/2 cup of melted margarine in a shallow dish. 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Have ready a shallow baking pan. 4. Dip chicken pieces first in the margarine, then into the bread crumb mixture. Place in baking pan in a single layer. Drizzle rest of melted margarine evenly over chicken. 5. Bake for 45 minutes, turning only once. Chicken will be crusty and golden brown.
