Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a casserole dish.
- In a bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Coat each piece of chicken with the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Place chicken in casserole dish.
- Combine the heavy whipping cream and water. Pour the mixture around the chicken.
- Bake for about 90 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- Serve the Amish Chicken hot, spooning the creamy sauce over the top.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with rustic mashed potatoes to soak up the creamy sauce.
- Pair with buttery corn on the cob for a classic, hearty side.
- A side of steamed vegetables or a simple green salad can balance the richness of the dish.
- If you’re looking for extra flavor, top with fresh parsley or chives for a burst of color and freshness.
Tips:
- Bone-in, skin-on chicken works best for this dish as it helps retain moisture and adds extra flavor to the creamy sauce.
- If the sauce is too thin, you can simmer it on the stovetop for a few minutes to thicken it before serving.
- Leftovers taste even better the next day, as the flavors continue to meld together.
- Feel free to add a pinch of thyme or rosemary to the cream mixture for an extra depth of flavor.
