01 -
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, sliced into strips
02 -
130 g all-purpose flour
03 -
3 large eggs
04 -
60 ml whole milk
→ For the Crunchy Coating
05 -
125 g crushed cornflakes (about 5 cups, smashed small)
06 -
0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
07 -
0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika
08 -
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
09 -
0.5 teaspoon salt
→ For the Sweet BBQ Sauce
10 -
360 ml BBQ sauce
11 -
120 ml ketchup
12 -
120 ml honey
# Steps:
01 -
Pull the chicken from the oven and let it cool a few minutes. Pour the warm honey BBQ sauce over the chicken, toss well, and dig in while it's fresh.
02 -
While the chicken's in the oven, stir together BBQ sauce, honey, and ketchup in a little pot. Heat it over medium-low, stirring now and then, for 6 to 7 minutes.
03 -
Arrange the coated chicken strips on your lined tray. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping after 10 so both sides get a nice color.
04 -
Coated chicken strips go into the egg mix first, let the extra drip off, then toss them one at a time in the cornflake mix. Press them in a bit so it really sticks.
05 -
Whisk up eggs and milk together in a little bowl till smooth.
06 -
In a big bowl, combine the cornflakes, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until it's all mixed up.
07 -
Toss chicken strips in a medium bowl with flour. Make sure every piece is coated all around.
08 -
Fire up your oven to 200°C (top and bottom heat) and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
# Notes:
01 -
Smashing up those cornflakes gives you the crunch you'd get from frying—without actually frying.
