Ingredients
Scale
1/3 cup buttermilk
1/4 tsp salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Cooking spray
1 lb 500 gr chicken tenderloins
1 cup bread crumbs
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs beaten
1 cup cornflakes crushed
1/2 tbsp Italian seasoning
Instructions
Warm up your oven to 350°F 180ºC.
Place the chicken in a shallow dish and pour buttermilk over it, letting it soak for 15 minutes.
Lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix together bread crumbs, cornflakes, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning in a shallow bowl. Beat eggs in a separate bowl and spread flour on a flat plate.
First, dredge each chicken piece in flour, then dip into the beaten eggs, and finally press into the cornflake and bread crumb mixture to cover completely.
Lay the coated chicken fingers on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes or until cooked through.
