"I got the idea for this recipe after trying a similar recipe posted by Gerry. I was so impressed with her recipe I just had to play around with different herb combinations and came up with this. The skin is so nice and crispy. You would think it's deep fried, not baked."

Crunchy outside, juicy inside! I ground up brown rice and used onion powder and no seasoning salt (preference). We really like this "breading", and will be sharing this with celiac family members when they come to visit. Thank you Bea for another keeper!
