1. Preheat the Oven:
– Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or a light drizzle of olive oil.
2. Prepare the Coating:
– In a shallow bowl, combine the crushed cornflakes, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
3. Set Up the Breading Station:
– In another shallow bowl, place the flour. In a third bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
4. Coat the Chicken:
– Take each chicken breast and first dip it into the flour, shaking off any excess.
– Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
– Finally, coat the chicken in the cornflake and cheese mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres well.
5. Bake the Chicken:
– Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with a little olive oil for extra crispiness.
– Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crispy. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
6. Serve:
– Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
– Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.
