Ingredients:
Chicken
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bit sized chunks
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 5 cups corn flakes cereal, crushed lightly
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix together your crushed cornflakes with your salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika.
Whisk the eggs with the milk.
Take each piece of chicken and dip it into the egg mixture, then roll it in the cornflake mixture. Place each chicken bit on the baking sheet. Repeat until all your chicken is coated.
