Ingredients

  • 1 lb. boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1/4 cup Egg Beaters®
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1/2 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 cups cornflake crumbs

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine flour, egg beaters, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper and buttermilk.
  3. One at a time, dip chicken in batter, then roll in cornflake crumbs, pressing firmly to coat chicken on both sides.
  4. Place chicken in a shallow metal baking or roasting pan coated with nonstick spray.
  5. Spray chicken with nonstick spray. (This helps to make it crispier.)
  6. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the chicken is crisp. Check for doneness by inserting sharp knife into the center.
