Recipe View Let chicken cool for five minutes before serving. Remove the toothpicks before serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of lemon zest to the garlic-herb butter.
Ensure the butter is thoroughly frozen before rolling it into the chicken breasts to prevent leakage during baking.
Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness helps them cook evenly.
Feel free to experiment with different herbs in the butter mixture, such as chives, dill, or tarragon.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can substitute it with regular milk mixed with a tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar.
Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

    I was a little hesitant to use cornflakes, but it turned out amazing! A great way to add some crunch!

  • Yolanda Willms

    Easy to follow recipe, and the results were fantastic. My only suggestion would be to make extra garlic butter to put on top of the chicken after it comes out of the oven!

  • Eusebio Auer

    The garlic-herb butter is what makes this recipe so special. It adds a ton of flavor to the chicken. I will definitely be making this again.

  • Birdie Romaguera

    I made this last night, and it was a huge hit! The cornflake crust was incredibly crispy, and the chicken was so moist. My family loved it!

  • Waldo Grady
