CORNFLAKE CRUSTED CHICKEN



Cornflake Crusted Chicken image

This is a variation of a recipe I had found. This is my ALL time favorite way to eat baked chicken. I can not say enough good things about this!!! Make sure to use chicken that is NOT frozen for best results. This turns out so nice and crispy. My picky daughter even eats it all up !!! We have even made chicken strips from it instead to make it more kid friendly. I serve it with white pepperd gravy to dip it in on put on top- YUM YUM..... LET ME STRESS AGAIN HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO NOT USE FROZEN CHICKEN BREAST- IT WILL MAKE THE CRUST SOGGY ESPECIALLY ON THE BOTTOMS AS EXPEIENCED BY SOME MEMBERS

Now, go ahead and snirl up your nose and say, "ewww...hospital food" but I'm telling you, folks...my hospital has good food.

Crispy Cornflake-Crusted Chicken Sliders image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

3 tablespoons buttermilk
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons finely sliced chives
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 to 4 turns freshly ground black pepper
Pinch cayenne
1/2 head cabbage, cored and finely sliced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
3 cups canola oil
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup Sriracha sauce
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 teaspoons granulated onion
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 cups cornflakes, crushed
24 ounces chicken tenders (twelve 2-ounce tenders)
12 slider buns, split
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced thin
1 small red onion, sliced thin

Steps:

  • For the buttermilk slaw: In a medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chives, sugar, salt, pepper and cayenne. Whisk together until fully incorporated. Add the sliced cabbage and toss well. Cover and refrigerate.
  • For the garlic butter: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the parsley, then transfer the mixture to a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the chicken sliders: Heat the canola oil in a deep cast-iron skillet until it reaches 350 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
  • Combine the buttermilk and Sriracha in a medium mixing bowl and mix well. In another medium bowl, mix together the flour, granulated garlic, granulated onion, salt and pepper. Place the cornflakes in a third bowl. Dredge the chicken tenders in the seasoned flour, lightly pressing down on the tenders to give them a more even shape. Remove the chicken from the flour with your left hand and lightly dip them in the Sriracha buttermilk. Shake off excess buttermilk and, with your right hand, roll the tenders in the cornflake crumbs, pressing the crumbs into the tenders until they are completely breaded. Set the breaded tenders on baking sheet as you go.
  • In two batches, fry the tenders until golden brown on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes. When done, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to paper towels to drain.
  • Brush the slider buns on both sides with garlic butter. Toast the buns, buttered-side down, in a large saute pan over medium heat until golden brown, 30 to 45 seconds.
  • To build the sliders, layer the bottom buns with a slice of red onion, a slice of tomato and a chicken tender. Top with buttermilk slaw and cover with the bun top. Arrange the finished sliders on a serving platter and serve immediately.

CORNFLAKE CHICKEN



Cornflake Chicken image

From 3 fat chicks on a diet, here's a recipe that offers a tasty crunch, lowfat chicken, and a real kid pleaser. I made this once so far and I will be toying around with the seasonings, because it needs some punch to it. Maybe some sort of italian spices would do it, but it might just be a job for paprika. If you try this, please let me know what you think! I served it with a crockpot green bean casserole and broc. with light velveeta cheese.

Provided by SmoochTheCook

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, flattened
1 cup corn flakes, crushed
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 cup skim milk

Steps:

  • Combine cornflake crumbs and seasonings in shallow bowl. Soak chicken in milk then dredge chicken in crumb mixture. Place on baking sheet which has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake at 400* about 25 minutes or until lightly browned.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken: Fresh chicken will give you the best results. If you're using frozen chicken, be sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
  • Use cornflakes that aren't too sweet: The sweetness of the cornflakes will affect the overall flavor of the dish. If you're using cornflakes that are too sweet, the chicken may end up being too sweet as well.
  • Crush the cornflakes into different sizes: This will help create a more interesting texture in the coating.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the chicken: This will cause the chicken to steam instead of fry, resulting in soggy chicken.
  • Serve the chicken immediately: Cornflake chicken is best served hot and fresh out of the fryer.

Conclusion:

Cornflake chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
