Deep South Oven Chicken

• 4 Tbsp butter or margarine
• 1 cup buttermilk baking mix
• 1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp poultry seasoning
• 2/3 cup evaporated milk
• 1 broiler-fryer, cut up

In a large open roasting pan in a 400° F oven, melt butter and margarine.

Meanwhile, on wax paper, combine baking mix, chopped pecans, paprika, salt and poultry seasoning. Pour evaporated milk into a pie plate. Dip chicken pieces in milk, then coat well with baking mix mixture. Place chicken pieces, skin side down, in a roasting pan. Bake chicken 30 minutes.

With a pancake turner, carefully turn chicken pieces. Bake 20 minutes longer or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a fork, covering with foil after 10 minutes if chicken begins to brown too quickly.
