Baked Cornflake Chicken

Recipe Description

A chicken dish with a difference, my Baked Cornflake Chicken is crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside! If I want to add a little crunch to a dish, I often turn to the cornflakes box in my store cupboard. The topping for a mac n cheese, an extra crispiness in an apple crumble – corn flakes work great every time! With this dish, the crispy outer coating, seasoned and flavored with a touch of garlic powder, is the perfect accompaniment to the juiciness of the baked chicken. Baking the chicken in the oven is a healthier alternative to frying it in oil, and you still get the same tender texture and chicken flavor. Why not give this chicken recipe a go?

To make Baked Cornflake Chicken, you will need the following ingredients:

Awesome. My kids absolutely loved the Baked Cornflake Chicken. It was easy to make, and I felt good serving them a healthier option. The crunch on the outside and juiciness on the inside was just perfekt. It quickly became a family favorite at dinner time.

¡Increíble! Esta receta es super fácil y mis peques la aman. La hice una vez cuando no sabía que cocinar y fue un hit en casa. La combinación de pollo y cornflakes es genial, los niños se ríen de lo crujiente. Recomendada al 100%.
