Recipe created by Chef Jon Ashton of Orlando, Florida
Makes 4-6 servings
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- Salt
- Pepper
- 4 egg whites
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups cornflakes
- 1 cup (4 oz.) reduced fat Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 6 chicken breast filets, cut into strips
- Non-stick cooking spray
- Ketchup or barbecue sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Set up three bowls with the following: 1) flour mixed with a pinch of salt and pepper; 2) an egg-wash made by beating the eggs and milk together; and 3) cornflakes mixed with cheese.
Coat a 13 x 9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Dip chicken pieces in flour, then into the egg-wash, then roll in the cheesy-flakes mixture, coating the entire piece of chicken and place on the baking pan. Discard any unused corn flake mixture after coating chicken. Bake for 25 minutes, turning halfway through to ensure even browning. Serve with ketchup or BBQ sauce if desired.
