The Best Oven Fried Chicken Ever (with Creamy Honey Mustard)

Mayonnaise makes this chicken yummy and easy. The mayonnaise keeps the moisture in the chicken and helps the corn flake crumbs stick to the chicken. The corn flake crumbs make the perfect crunch. Make sure you don’t over bake your chicken, you want it to be moist and juicy.

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF. Liberally grease a baking sheet (butter is best.)
