Crispy Chicken Nuggets

Great tasting chicken with a twist. Cornflakes are crunchier than breadcrumbs and your family will love them!

Ready in 30 minutes

Yield : Makes 4 servings

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 Large Eggland’s Best eggs, 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.
