OVEN-FRIED CHICKEN WITH A CORN FLAKE CRUST



Oven-Fried Chicken with a Corn Flake Crust image

For Chicken with a Corn Flake Crust, reduce the fat, remove the chicken skin before coating.

Provided by Irma S. Rombauer

Categories     Chicken     Bake     Quick & Easy

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Position a rack in the upper third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly oil a baking sheet.
Rinse and pat dry:
3 1/2 pounds chicken parts
Season with:
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
ground black pepper
Whisk together in a shallow bowl:
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
Combine in a wide, shallow bowl:
2 1/2 cups crushed corn flakes
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Dip the chicken pieces in the egg mixture, then coat with the corn flake mixture, patting with your fingers to make the crumbs adhere. The chicken can be prepared to this point up to 3 hours in advance and kept, uncovered, in the refrigerator. Arrange the chicken skin side up on the baking sheet. If you wish, drizzle over the chicken:
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • Bake until the chicken is crisp and golden, 45 to 60 minutes. Serve immediately or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs work best for this recipe. If you're using chicken breasts, slice them into thin cutlets so they cook evenly.
  • Make sure the chicken is well-coated in the egg mixture and cornflake crumbs. This will help the crumbs adhere to the chicken and create a crispy coating.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary, so that each piece has enough room to brown evenly.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce are all good options.

Conclusion:

Cornflake crumb parmesan chicken is a quick and easy weeknight meal that the whole family will love. It's crispy, flavorful, and can be served with a variety of dipping sauces. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook chicken, give this recipe a try!
