Need Chick, corn flakes, honey recipe...

[Linda in MO]

lsdesign,
please post your chicken recipe also! Sounds yummy and easy!
Thanks

I have made the honey dijon cornflake chicken before and it is definitely a keeper. The sweet/spicy/crunch combination is a keeper and it really does taste as good (actually, better!) as fried chicken.

See above for the Honey Pecan Crusted Chicken. That's it! And, its easy...delicious!
Enjoy.

Here's somewhat similar recipe that I really like.

Sliced lemon-pistachio chicken over greens

¾ cup cornflakes
2 tablespoons pistachios, toasted
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
½ teaspoon salt, divided
½ teaspoon black pepper, divided
1 tablespoon honey
Cooking spray
6 cups gourmet salad greens
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 (4-oz) skinned, boned chicken breast halves
lemon wedges (optional)


1. Combine cornflakes, pistacios, rind, ¼ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper in a food processor; pulse until coarsely ground. Place crumb mixture in a shallow dish.

2. Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap. Flatten to ¼-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Brush the chicken with honey. Dredge the chicken in crumb mixture.


3. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add chicken and saute 5 minutes on each side or until done. Cut chicken into ½ inch strips; set aside.

4. Place salad greens in a large bowl. Combine ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, juice and oil and drizzle over salad greens, tossing gently to coat.


5. Divide the salad greens and chicken evenly among 4 plates. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired. Yield: 4 servings (serving side: 1 ½ cups salad and 1 chicken breast half).

Hi...I'm pretty sure I picked up this recipe on a newsletter from cooking light but now can't find it. Its a chicken recipe that uses honey and dijon mustard, and then corn flakes and chopped pecans ...bake it...something like that. Any help. It was easy and delicious.

[lsdesign]

I have one in my repetoire from CL that uses
corn flake crumbs mixed with salt, garlic powder and paprika for a coating. First you dip the cut up chicken breasts in plain yogurt that has honey mixed into it then pop them into the bag with the cornflake mixture. Put out on a pan and drizzle with a tbs. of butter. If this sounds good to you I can find it to post. I have made it so many times I just do it by sight these days.
