We are big fans of Southern food. Bigger fans of fried chicken. It sounds strange but Cap'n Crunch cereal makes this chicken sweet and tasty. You can fry it in oil, or be good to your heart and oven fry. It's just as yummy.

Cap'n Crunch Chicken

Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups Cap'n Crunch cereal
1 cup Cornflakes (plain!)
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 pounds chicken pieces (or breasts cut into tenders)

Here's how it should look at the end of the line.

Place the chicken on a non-stick foil lined cookie sheet.

Bake for 1 hour. Now, you are more than welcome to do it the traditional way and fry the hell out it. I prefer the semi-healthy way and 'oven frying' it. It's still just as tasty.

This is a really easy and amazingly tasty recipe.

And as my son said, "Mommy! This is GOOD CHICKEN!"

Stir together the onion powder, garlic powder and black pepper. Combine with the flour and set aside.

In a separate plate beat the egg with the milk.

Wash and dry your chicken. I cannot stress this enough. I am a bacteria-phobe and believe that washing the raw chicken will get you to heaven.

This is how your assembly line should look:
chicken, seasoned flour, egg+milk and cereal.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Crush, grind, bash, any way you can, get the Cap'n Crunch and the Corn Flakes smashed to smithereens. The finer the better. I put the cereals in a freezer bag and have at it with a rolling pin. That works for me.
