Baked Flaked Chicken

Ingredients

  • 2 lb Chicken, Boneless
  • 3 cup Cornflakes cereal
  • 0.3 cup Whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper, Ground
  • 2 Eggs, Large
  • 1/4 cup Milk, Nonfat, or Non-Dairy Alternatives
  • Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
  2. Remove skin, if any, from chicken pieces. If working with large chicken breasts, cut in half lengthwise for faster cooking time. Trim any excess fat.
  3. In a medium bowl, crush cornflakes.
  4. In a second medium bowl, mix flour, salt, and black pepper.
  5. In a third medium bowl, add eggs and milk. Beat with a fork.
  6. Dip each chicken piece into flour, then egg mixture, then cornflakes. Each piece should be fully coated with flakes.
  7. Coat baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place chicken pieces on sheet, evenly spaced. Spray pieces lightly with cooking spray.
  8. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
