Oven-baked cornflake chicken sticks ~ 6 sticks

 
 
Over the weekend, I bought some chicken breast and thought what dish can I make with them. I wanted to make a new dish for J, so I decided why not combine the chicken breast with his favourite cornflakes. It turned out really well...It was tasty and both us and J enjoyed it very much.
 
It was also a good opportunity for him to practise holding his food in his hand or using a fork to feed himself. :)
 
 
Here's the recipe:
 
Ingredients:
 
50ml milk
1 chicken breast (approx. 120g)
1 egg
Original cornflakes
Plain flour
Rosemary herbs
Black pepper
Canola oil
Salt (optional)
 

 
Method:

1.Cut chicken into strips and soak in milk for 20min.
2. Crush the cornflake until like crumbs( can use blender. I used a rolling pin with cornflakes in a ziplock bag)
3. Prepare egg wash(beat egg in bowl) and a plate of plain flour. Season the cornflake crumbs with some black pepper, rosemary herb n pinch of salt(optional). Remove chicken strips out of milk.
4. Preheat oven to 175 degrees C. Lightly coat chicken strips with plain flour, then dredge in egg wash followed by cornflake crumbs.
5. Drizzle some oil on the chicken strips. Bake in preheated oven for abt 10-12 min. Or slightly golden brown.
6. Leave to cool for 5min before serving to ur LO.

*recipe is suitable for LO who can bite n chew well.
* It's tasty and even adults will enjoy!
*You can serve it with some homemade pasta sauce or ketchup for extra taste.
