Ingredients

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 6 pieces
2 large eggs
¼ cup whole milk
4 cups cornflakes
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
Cooking spray

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and placing an oven-safe wire rack over it.
Prepare your chicken by cutting each breast in half so you have 6 equal pieces, set aside.
Whisk the eggs and milk in a medium shallow bowl, and set aside.
In a large plastic bag, add your cornflakes, paprika, garlic, onion, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Use a rolling pin to crush the cornflakes and shake until everything has come together into a coarse crumb mixture. Pour the cornflake crumbs out into a large plate.
Dip your chicken into the egg mixture to coat, remove and coat generously in the cornflake crumbs, completely covering the chicken.
Place the breaded chicken onto the prepared wire rack and pan, repeat with all your chicken cuts.
Once all the chicken is breaded, spray them each with cooking oil and place in the oven, and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through baking.
Remove from the oven and allow the chicken to cool for a few minutes before enjoying.
