If you like fried chicken, and LOVE garlic, give this a try.

(or about 1-1/2 Tbsp. dried)       1/8 teaspoon pepper
5 Tbsp. butter or margarine       3 garlic cloves, minced
1 chicken (3 lbs.), cut up

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a shallow bowl, blend together bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, salt and pepper.

In a small saucepan, heat butter and garlic over very low heat until butter melts. Remove from heat. Brush chicken pieces with garlic butter, then roll in bread crumb mixture to coat.
