Cornflake semi-fried chicken tenders

Chicken second courses
recipe

This dish right here is probably one of the reasons I have been married so long! This is hands down is my husband’s favorite meal ever. I learned this early on in our relationship, his mom makes her own version, and this is what my husband would choose when it was his birthday to eat every year. Mine is similar, but different as I add cornflakes to the mix. My dad used to make cornflake chicken for us when I was little for dinner when my mom was working the grill at our restaurant and it was dad’s turn to watch us. I love cornflakes in general, but they take on a whole new identity when used in chicken breading. A very well-known biscuit shop here in PDX puts cornflakes on their famous chicken breasts that lie between their homemade biscuits. Never underestimate this cold cereal—its uses go far beyond a bowl and milk. I call this “semi-fried” since I shallow fry it and then put it in the oven. This cuts way down on the grease factor, but still has all the flavor of its full-fried friends.
