Giving this 5 stars because even my very picky 5 yr old liked this. I used 1 egg and 2 egg whites instead of the butter and replaced the parmesan cheese with about 1/2 c. shredded cheddar. (All I had.) The breasts I had were huge so I cut them into strips before coating them. I probably should have cooked them about 30 minutes instead of 45 as they were a bit overcooked but the flavor was still fantastic! I will be making this again.

I'm not going to rate the recipe because I had to make it gluten free and I'm sure it's just not the same. I used gluten free Corn Checks and a few teaspoons of white rice flour instead of the corn flakes (they have wheat in them). The flavor was great and it was sooo easy, but I just couldn't get them to become crisp or browned without overcooking the chicken. If anyone has tried making this recipe with gluten free ingredients, please let me know what you used instead of corn flakes.

Thanks for this recipe. I am going to use it often. My husband accidentally bought wheat flakes and they still tasted delicious. I cannot wait to try them with cornflakes! Oh, and also this recipe is a winner with the young ones. My toddler thought they were great. We just cut the chicken up into really thin slices before breading them. Great Finger food. Like the other posters, I used a whole, raw egg instead of the butter.

Welcome! I joined this website in 2001, as a new wife and Mom of a 1 y/o and I was 28 yrs old and did not know about cooking. I found this website cause I searched the web and wanted to find a good recipe for carrots! I found that recipe and so much more here over the years. I learned so much from this website and opened up my eyes to other recipes. I now am 46 y/o. I am now divorced and my then 1 y/o son is now a Marine. I have a wonderful man in my life that loves and appreciates my cooking and I thank this site for all of its help. I still come here for recipes. I hope you like my recipes and your family enjoys them also....there is many here and I love to pass them on.
