Notes

For a lighter version, try baking instead of frying! Simply spray the coated chicken with cooking spray and bake at 400°F for 20-25 minutes.
You can use any type of cereal for coating, but the sweet and crunchy Cap'n Crunch pairs wonderfully with the savory flavors.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the flour mixture!
