This was my grandmother’s recipe for breaded baked chicken, she called Southern “Fried” chicken, she dipped in oil, I dipped in egg whites. I added the honey for a little sweetness. It is very simple and reheats well.

I’m excited about this recipe! I just saw that I can dip the chicken in oil (not my preference but I have a grandson who is allergic to eggs). I can make a few pieces for my grandson and use egg whites for the rest of the family! I can’t wait to make this!
Hi there! I just discovered your website: Corn Flake Crumb Baked Chicken Recipe when I was searching
delicious.com. It looks as though someone liked your website so much they decided to bookmark it.
I’ll surely be returning here more often.
It really depends on how big they are. If you are making them more like fingers with small strips then it should only take 20-30 minutes.
if I am using chicken strips do I have to wait the same amount of cooking time?
No, that was something I added at some point, not in the original from my Bubbe, so you can definitely enjoy without the honey.
Is the honey important? I have one family member that is allergic.
i make this all the time- delicious!!!!
It would change the flavor of course, but it definitely could work. Let us know if you try it.
To be a bit healthier still, would this work with a higher fiber cereal, like Fiber One?
yes, it is yellow squash.
One of my favorites. I used to make cornflake crumb chicken with bone-in pieces only, because I thought the boneless breast would dry out – but I’ve learned to stay with the shorter baking time and serve fresh, and the meat stays moist and tender. Kids LOVE this recipe!
Next to chicken: Yellow squash?
what is pictured along side the chicken? Looks like a baking powder biscuit, made with soy milk
and either oil, or a good quality parve margarine.
