Make This Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 cups Corn Flakes
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- Pinch of Black Pepper
- 1 pound skinless, boneless Chicken Breast Halves, cut into nugget-size pieces
- 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2 Eggland's Best eggs, large, lightly beaten
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Lightly oil or coat a large baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- Place the corn flakes in a resealable plastic bag and crush to a fine texture using a rolling pin or the bottom of a small saucepan, or place in a food processor and pulse several turns until finely crushed. Combine with the Parmesan cheese, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper in a medium bowl.
- To bread the chicken, coat in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in the egg, then coat well in the corn flake mixture.
- Arrange the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and cook until golden brown, about 12 minutes.
- If you are short on time, you can buy precrushed corn flake crumbs in the supermarket.
- In addition to ketchup or mustard, try various dipping sauces like honey, bar-b-que sauce, wasabi or even duck sauce from the Chinese restaurant.
