Description

Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch chunks
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 2 large egg, beaten
• 2 cups crushed Corn Flakes
• ¾ cup chicken broth
• ½ tbsp tomato paste
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 1½ tsp sriracha sauce
• 3 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1½ tbsp granulated sugar
• 2 tbsp corn starch mixed with 2 tbsp water
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• dried red chili flakes
• sesame seeds

Directions

• Move one of the oven racks to the upper-middle part and preheat oven to 450ºF.
• Cover a large cooking tray with parchment paper.
• Place three large bowls one next to another and fill the first one with flour, the second with eggs and the last one with crushed corn flakes.
• Dip each piece of chicken in flour and egg and cover with crushed cornflakes, while gently pressing to coat. Place on cooking tray.
• Bake in the oven for about 13 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and cornflakes are golden brown.
• Meanwhile put all the ingredients for the sauce- except for cornstarch - in a medium size pot and bring to a gentle boil. Give the cornstarch and water a quick stir and slow add to the sauce while stirring. Cook for a minute until sauce thickens and turn the heat off.
• Take chicken out of the oven and transfer to a large pan. Turn the heat on to low and pour sauce over the chicken, coating each piece evenly while tossing. *If you are adding sesame seeds, sesame oil and dried red chilies, this is the time to add them.
• Turn the heat off, transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
