This oven-fried chicken is not only low fat, it's a kid pleaser. The fact that my daughter said that it tasted better than a certain fast-food joint's chicken is, I think, a compliment.

Cook Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/4 pounds chicken breasts, cut into four pieces
  • 2 egg whites
  • 2 cups crushed cornflakes
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp dried mixed herbs

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Place egg whites in a shallow bowl, and crushed cornflake crumbs, paprika and mixed herbs in another shallow bowl. Dip chicken into egg whites, then into cornflake crumbs.

Place dipped chicken on a baking tray coated with nonstick cooking spray. Cook for 20-25 minutes, turning the chicken halfway through.

Serves 4.
