A foil for sticking

To keep cleanup at a minimum I always line the baking tray with aluminum foil when cooking in the oven.  However many breaded frozen foods tend to stick to the foil, pulling the breading off or leaving shreds of foil stuck to the food.  Spraying the foil with non-stick spray or coating it with cooking oil helps but changes the texture of the breading, and of course can add calories.

Here’s a simple trick to prevent sticking … lightly crumple the sheet of aluminum foil then spread it out over the baking sheet.  The food will then rest on the ridges of the foil and will not stick.  An added benefit is that the heated air circulates under the food resulting in perfect browning.  In most cases I don’t even have to turn the food over halfway through.

This also works great with frozen French fries and other similar foods.
