Cornflake "Fried" Chicken
An easy and flavorful crispy chicken breast that is much healthier than deep-fried.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breast about 6 oz each
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp white pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp rosemary dried
- 1/4 tsp thyme dried
- 1/4 tsp oregano dried
- 1/4 tsp sage dried
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper or more to taste
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 cup cornflake crumbs
Instructions
Marinade
- Combine all seasonings in a small bowl.
- Coat all pieces of chicken with seasoning mix.
- Place chicken in a medium container or gallon plastic bag.
- Pour buttermilk over chicken. Cover or seal and let marinade in the fridge overnight or up to 3 days.
Bake
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Lightly spray a 9 x 13 baking pan with nonstick spray or use a baking rack.
- On a plate or wide bowl, pour a thin layer of cornflake crumbs.
- Remove one piece of chicken and lightly shake to remove excess buttermilk.
- Place chicken on the crumbs and pour more crumbs on top and gently coat the entire piece of chicken. Place chicken on prepared pan.
- Repeat with remaining chicken pieces. Space chicken evenly on the pan.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 30 - 40 minutes until chicken reaches 165 degrees internally and coating is crispy. Enjoy!
