Cooking Class Oven Baked Chicken

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!  Thursday was the 3rd class of "Cooking With A Southern Soul" and just like the other two, we had a great time.  Cooking, talking, laughing and learning about food & new flavors....what could be better?  I love my sweet, quirky, cute students and they have inspired me in ways I didn't think possible.  

This sessions theme was "Think OUTSIDE the Lunch Box" and the menu included chicken tenders, Sunshine Fruit Salad, Pasta with a PRO (protein) and Couscous with feta and veggies.  The clear winner of the night - THE CHICKEN!  Here's what we did....

Crispy Oven Baked Chicken with Honey Mustard

Preheat oven to 400 degrees


2 to 3 lbs of chicken tenders (chicken breasts cut into long strips)
4 cups of plain corn flakes - crushed
1/2 cup of mustard - whatever flavor you like
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup mayonnaise
salt and pepper
Mix mustard, honey and mayo in a shallow dish.
After crushing corn flakes, put them into a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper.
Dip chicken into the mustard mix then dredge in corn flakes.  Place on a wire rack or parchment lined baking pan.  
Cook for approximately 20-25 minutes.  Test to make sure chicken is cooked but not dry.  

Make your own dipping sauce of mustard, honey and mayo using the measurements above.  You can spice it up a little by adding some hot sauce or cayenne pepper.
