This is a wonderfully satisfying chicken dish. I use it w/ small strips of chicken like chicken fingers. It’s great.
Have made this heaps of times now, it’s really yummy and crunchy, a good substitute for the old favourite KFC!!!
I tried the above recipe and I thought the Cornflake Chicken was excellent. I would recommend the recipe.
Wonderful recipe - my family loved it! Thanks for the recipe!!!
This chicken is excellent - Passed the test. My husband said it was better than KFC!
I don’t know about better than KFC, but it was pretty good for a lowfat version. I decided to turn mine into chicken parmesan. When it was done I spooned on 1/4C of Bertolli Tomato & Basil Pasta Sauce and sprinkled on 1/4C of reduced fat mozarella cheese. Then I placed it back into the oven just until the cheese melted. The parmesan cheese I put on the table for individual taste. I know I added some fat and calories, but my family’s picky tastebuds needed the diversion, and since we LOVE chicken parmesan it was a nice way of making a favorite lower in fat!
I agree with one of the other reviews. It is not better than KFC, but for low fat, it is good. Me and my husband definately plan on making it again. One suggestion - serve it with some type of dipping sauce (like honey mustard). Without the sauce, the dish is a little dry.
I love this chicken! I often substitute low fat buttermilk for the skim milk to soak the chicken in for extra flavor.
Excellent,easy to do and a kid pleaser. Followed the recipe exactly.
I love this easy to do recipe! It tastes wonderful and is even good cold! For a spicy twist, I like to use buffalo wing sauce instead of skim milk!
My whole family loved it, it is very moist and tender. They prefer this to shake n Bake. The only change I made is I add more spice to the mixture to give it an extra boost.
Tasted just like chicken fingers. I suggest using a dip as they are a little dry.
My husband and I really liked this. It was quick, easy, and had a nice flavor with a crunch. I’ll definitley make it again.
I agree, great recipe but a little dry. I now rub the chicken breasts with a very light covering of no fat or low fat mayo before rolling in corn flake mixture. They are not dry at all this way and although it adds a little more fat, I can now do without the dipping sauces.
I loved it. For some reason the chicken was perfect, I had no problems with it being dry…which is one of the reasons everyone liked it so much. It’s easy and tasty.
Really delicious. Will make it again.
It was awesome. My family loved every bit of it. Was easy to make, quick, and tasted great.
Yummy! My husband and I just had this for dinner and we were licking our plates. Really good flavor!
mmm! I tried this at a friends house and it was delicious!
Another AMAZING version of this I learned from my grandmother is to dip the chicken in ranch dressing with about a cup of milk first (you can use fat-free for dieters), and then dip it in cornflakes with some cracked pepper and parsley. Everyone I’ve ever eaten this with absolutely LOVES it!!!
I’ve made this recipe a couple times so far. I would recommend using a food processor to make the crumbs. I tried doing it by hand the first time which left the pieces too big and it was just too crunchy. Also, the next time I made it I added in some bread crumbs (from one piece of bread) and about 2 tablespoons of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. It was amazing!
I MADE THIS RECIPIE FOR MY FRIEND AND I AND NOW SHE MAKES IT FOR HER FAMILY. THIS RECIPIE IS THE BEST ONE OUT THERE.
I LOVE this recipe. I tried it for the first time a week ago and have already done it again. My kids absolutly love it as well! A great one for the whole family.
This chicken recipe is awesome. I have made this dish several times in the last two weeks. I have only dipped my chicken in buttermilk. I find it gives the chicken more flavor and makes the chicken juicier. This is a recipe that one can make several different ways and still have a wonderful dish.
easy, quick and tasty
I tried this last night for my wife and I and this was the BEST chicken we’ve ever had. I agree with the person who wrote that it was better than KFC. Very good I would highly recommend this dish.
Great dish my family loved it!
I also didn’t manage to get the cornflakes small enough and found they were rather crunchy but i’ll try putting them in a food processor next time.
I also discovered adding a squeeze of lemon on the chicken leaves it tender and delicious!
I made this last night! It was great and my fiance loved the crust. I added 1 tsp of cayanne pepper and 1 tsp of garlic powder to the cornflake crumbs to give it a little buffalo kick. Great idea if you are in the mood for something spicy!
This is a great dish! I substitute the poultry seasoning for chicken seasoning by mccormick instead, and add just a pinch of poultry seasoning, and I find that a hundred times better
