1 hrs
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. (60 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the cornflake crumbs.
Don't overcrowd the baking dish; ensure the chicken breasts are spaced evenly apart for even cooking.
Serve with your favorite sides – roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad all complement this dish beautifully.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
To crush the cornflakes, simply place them in a large ziplock bag and gently crush them with a rolling pin or your hands. Avoid making them too fine; you want some texture.
Experiment with different seasonings! A little paprika or cayenne pepper can add a nice touch of heat.
