Description

A delightful dish that combines juicy chicken breasts with a crispy, cheesy coating, perfect for families or quick dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 1/2 cups crushed cornflakes or crispy cereal
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix together the crushed cornflakes, shredded cheddar cheese, and garlic powder.
  3. Take each chicken breast and coat it thoroughly in the cornflake mixture, ensuring even coverage.
  4. Place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet.
  5. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating turns golden brown.
  6. Once done, serve warm and enjoy the crunchy, cheesy goodness.

Notes

For maximum crispiness, make sure the chicken breasts are fully coated in the cornflake mixture. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after baking for juicier results.
