Ingredients

400 g chicken inner fillet
80 g corn flakes
3 tbsp Parmesan
1 tsp rosemary
1 tsp Italian herbs
1 tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper

Wet Mix

1 egg
40 g butter melted
3 tbsp milk

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking and help the chicken crisp evenly.
Prepare the crunchy coating: Crush the corn flakes in a bowl until they become normal-sized crumbs (not too fine). Mix in Parmesan, rosemary, Italian herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until everything is evenly combined.
Make the wet mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, and milk until smooth. This will help the coating stick and give a golden color when baked.
Coat the chicken: Dip each chicken piece into the wet mixture, then press it into the corn flakes mixture. Make sure the chicken is fully coated for the best crunch.
Bake until golden: Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking tray and bake for 45–60 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
