Best 4 Capn Crunch Chicken Recipes

CAPTAIN CRUNCH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Use a kitchen mallet or rolling pin to flatten each chicken breast to about 1 inch thick. Cut each chicken breast (lengthwise) into 4 to 6 long slices to make the chicken strips. Place chicken in a bowl, cover with buttermilk, and marinate several hours or overnight.
• Using a food processor or blender, crush the Cap'n Crunch cereal into crumbs. You can also place the cereal into a resealable plastic bag, squeeze out all the air, and roll over it with a rolling pin until the cereal is crushed into crumbs.
• Place the cereal crumbs in a bowl and add bread crumbs, flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well.
• Remove chicken from buttermilk marinade and set aside. Whisk one egg into the remaining marinade. Add the chicken back in and stir well.
• Coat each piece of chicken in the cereal crumb mixture.
• Deep Fry Method: Fill a deep fry pan with 2 inches of vegetable oil. Heat to 375 degrees. Fry each chicken strip for 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown. When fully cooked, place each chicken strip on a paper towel or rack to drain the oil. Air Fryer Method: Preheat air fryer to 350. Spray each side of the chicken strips with a little bit of cooking spray. Cook at 350 for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• For the Sauces: Mix ingredients together and let chill in the fridge at least one hour before serving.
