If you want to add a crunch to your meals, this crispy chicken breast recipe is the perfect choice. It's quick, simple, and can easily become the star of your dinner. Follow the steps below and discover the secrets to achieving perfectly crispy and tasty chicken breast.

Ingredients:
- 1 chicken breast (approximately 500 g)
- 3 tablespoons of flour
- 2 large eggs
- 350 g corn flakes
- Salt
- Pepper

Preparation:

1. Preparing the meat: Start by washing the chicken breast well under cold water. Then, cut it into wide strips, about 2-3 cm thick. Be careful not to make them too thin, as the meat will shrink during cooking and you want to maintain a juicy texture.

2. Crushing the corn flakes: Place the corn flakes in a clean, dry towel. Use a rolling pin to gently crush them until they become granular but not powdery. They will give the crust a crispy texture and a delicious taste.

3. Preparing the breading station: In a bowl, mix the flour with salt and pepper to taste. In another bowl, beat the two eggs well until combined. These steps are essential for creating a perfect crust on your chicken.

4. Breading the chicken strips: Take each chicken strip and coat it in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly covered. Then, dip it in the beaten eggs to allow the corn flakes to stick well. Finally, roll the strip in the crushed corn flakes, pressing lightly to ensure they adhere well.

5. Baking: Preheat the oven to 200°C. Prepare a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Place each chicken strip on the tray, leaving some space between them for even cooking. Put the tray in the oven and let the chicken bake for 20 minutes.

6. Turning the strips: After 20 minutes, turn the chicken strips to brown them evenly. Continue baking for another 20 minutes, or until they become golden and crispy.

7. Serving: Once the chicken breast is ready, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. You can serve these delicious crispy chicken strips alongside a fresh salad, yogurt sauces, or even with fries for a complete meal.

Personal suggestion: Try adding various spices to the flour, such as smoked paprika or garlic powder, for an extra flavor boost. You can also replace the corn flakes with breadcrumbs or a mix of both for an even more interesting texture.
