Loved this delicious chicken! The breading was very flavorful and the chicken baked up so moist and tasty. I used boneless skinless chicken breasts, lowfat mayo, and smoked paprika. Great recipe - thanks for sharing! Made for Spring Pick-A-Chef 2011

Made this chicken for dinner tonight using boneless skinless chicken breast strips. I followed the seasoning right down the line for the mayo but subbed panko bread crumbs that I seasoned with just a couple of dashes of cayenne pepper for the cornflake crumbs. The chicken came out so moist and tender with a wonderful light crunchy coating. I will definitely be making this again as it received no complaints. Made for Spring PAC 2011.

During PAC I cook quite a bit for a house-bound neighbor couple, but we were invited to their place for dinner one night (though I furnished the dinner!) & this was the main course! Much appreciated by everyone, it was so delicious! I followed your recipe right on down & the chicken was perfect! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
