"This is another favorite of mine from an old Richard Simmons cookbook. It is full of fiber, low in fat and calories, tangy, crispy, chewy, MMmmmmm."

This is a great low fat oven fried chicken recipe. The bran flakes were an interesting twist on the usual breading. I used chicken breasts instead of thighs. Everyone enjoyed dinner last night. The six year old dipped his slices in honey and was just thrilled! Thanks you hollygollygee for another great recipe! PAC 2008.
