Oven Baked Crispy Chicken

By CJKK

Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, smashed
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 teaspoons salt (use less I think too much salt)
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1/2 cup nonfat buttermilk
• 1 pound chicken tenders (about 12)
• 1 1/2 cups cornflakes, crushed to medium crumbs
• nonstick cooking spray

Preparation

Step 1

1. preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray lightly with cooking spray. Set aside
2. In a medium bowl, combine
the garlic, spices, and buttermilk. Add the chicken and turn in the marinade. Cover and refreigerate 1 hour.
3. Place the cornflake crumbs on a a plate. Drain the chicken tenders. Pick up a chicken tender with one hand, and turn it in the cornflake coating, using the other hand to gently press additional coating onto the sides. Place on the preapred baking sheet. Continue on in this way to coat all of the chicken pieces, arranging them on the baking sheet in a
single layer. Bake at 400 degrees until firm, about 15 minutes.
