Oven-Fried Chicken

This is a very basic, simple, and delicious recipe I found on the side of a cereal box, by Marlene Sorosky Gray. Highly recommended!
Ingredients:
3 1/2 lbs. chicken pieces - rinsed and patted dry
2 eggs
1/4 c. milk
2 1/2 c. crushed cornflakes
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
3 Tb. melted butter

What to do:
1. Position rack in upper third of oven. Preheat oven to 350*. Line a baking sheet with heavy foil and grease the foil.
2. In a pie dish or shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. In another shallow dish, stir together cereal, salt and pepper.
3. Dip the chicken into the egg mixture and then into the cereal mixture, patting with your hands to make the crumbs adhere. Arrange chicken on prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with melted butter.
4. Bake until crisp and golden, 40-50 minutes.
Makes 4 servings
