Steps:
- Have your GH (Grown-up Helper) turn the oven on to 375 degrees F.
- In a pie pan or other shallow, large dish, pour out the corn flakes. Crush the cereal up with your hands. Mix in bread crumbs, sugar, salt, pepper, and allspice - your SECRET ingredient. Do not tell anybody what your secret ingredient is - ever! If they ask how you make your special chicken toes, tell them about everything EXCEPT the secret.
- Drizzle about 3 tablespoons vegetable oil evenly over the breading, tossing and turning it to mix the oil all through the bread crumbs and crushed-up corn flakes. Have the GH pour the oil out slowly. A vegetable oil bottle has a big opening so, 3 tablespoons will pour out pretty quickly, probably by the time you can count to 5, so watch the GH closely and count really loudly!
- Have your GH cut the chicken fingers into toes, 2-inch pieces. Turn the chicken in flour, eggs and then in the special crunchy breading. Arrange the chicken toes on a nonstick baking sheet. Make your GH go and wash their hands. Place the chicken toes in the oven and cook 15 minutes or until crisp and brown all over.
- Mix together honey mustard and barbecue sauce in a small bowl. Serve hot chicken toes with honey mustard and barbecue sauce for dipping.

I am posting it because I do not want to lose this recipe, and it had been misplaced for a few months and just found again today. This recipe is written for 1 person, but ingredients can be increased as needed.

CRUNCHY BAKED CHICKEN TENDERS
Crispy, better than fried, and made with a few, simple ingredients makes this the recipe for me.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a nonstick baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
- 2. Cut chicken into strips. Season with salt and pepper.
- 3. Dip each strip into flour then into melted butter. Dip into corn flake crumbs. Place on prepared pan and bake 20-25 minutes, until chicken is crispy on the outside and cooked through.
Tips:
- Use a variety of spices and herbs: This will give your chicken a more complex flavor. Some good options include paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly. Make sure there is at least 1 inch of space between each piece of chicken.
- Bake the chicken until it is golden brown: This will ensure that it is cooked through. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Baked crunchy chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give baked crunchy chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
