This recipe is from Everday Foods. I just tried it out and it is SOO GOOD & crispy! I was impressed!!!! The recipe calls for bone-in legs and thighs, but I just used 4 breasts each cut into 3 diagonal strips. Ingredients:
4 bone-in skinless chicken drumsticks |
4 bone-in skinless chicken thighs |
coarse salt |
ground pepper |
1 large egg |
2 cups crushed corn flakes |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°.
2. Rinse chicken, and pat dry. Season generously with salt, garlic powder and pepper.
3. In a small bowl, whisk egg with 1 tablespoon water. In a large bowl, mix cornflakes with oil, cayenne, and 1 teaspoon salt.
4. Working with one piece of chicken at a time, dip chicken in egg mixture, then coat with seasoned cornflakes, pressing flakes to help them adhere. Transfer coated pieces to a rimmed baking sheet.
5. Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 30 minutes.
