Cornflake Chicken
September 3, 2008 – 7:29 pmThis is a recipe of Shaun’s. It’s a tasty way to bake chicken. Now that we’re getting some cooler fall temperatures, we can turn on the oven again for longer periods of time and enjoy meals like this one. I served these with roasted brussels sprouts and baked white rose potatoes, which cooked at the same temperature for about the same time.
Cornflake Chicken
Serves 2, generously
2 split chicken breasts, bone in, skin on
2 tbsp butter
1 cup cornflake crumbs
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a wide shallow dish. Pour the cornflake crumbs into another dish. Dredge the chicken in the butter and then in the cornflake crumbs, coating completely. Bake for 70 minutes or until an internal temperature of 165 degrees is reached and the coating is nice and crispy.

yummy! And what a great way to use up the frozen chicken I have in the freezer and the not-enough-to-eat-for-breakfast cornflakes!
Gonna have to give this one a shot!

I don’t have any cornflakes but I do have Fiber One cereal! I’ll need to try this using that cereal… love the idea and cereal isn’t just for breakfast 🙂
