Crunchy Garlic Chicken

Ever since we finished our 30 Days of Dinner challenge, we have been terrible at cooking and eating at home. October has been terribly busy, which hasn't helped. So today I decided I needed to make something for dinner that wasn't macaroni and cheese or stir-fry (my two go-to meals). This recipe is super easy, and you just need to do some veggies or a salad on the side and you've got a great meal. I will admit, I might have been steaming too many veggies for baby purees today, the cauliflower was a tad over done. Good thing I had made a quick cheese sauce to cover that up!


Crunchy Garlic Chicken (adapted from Best of Bridge)
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp chopped fresh chives
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 2 cups cornflakes, crushed
- 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 4-6 boneless, skinless, chicken breast halves

Heat oven to 425 F. Prepare baking sheet with nonstick spray or parchment paper.

In a dish, mix butter, milk, chives, salt and garlic together. Mix cornflakes, parsley and paprika together in another bowl. Dip chicken in butter mixture, then in cornflake mixture, coating evenly. Place on baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray or drizzle with vegetable oil.

Bake, uncovered, 20-25 minutes.
