Homemade Shake & Bake Seasoning
This homemade shake and bake is an easy pantry mix that gives chicken or pork a crispy, flavorful coating without needing a store-bought packet. Made with breadcrumbs, simple spices, and a little oil, it bakes up golden and crunchy in the oven or air fryer. It’s quick to mix together, budget-friendly, and perfect for easy weeknight dinners.
