Rice Krispie Chicken
Rice Krispie chicken is a fun and crispy dish that combines the classic flavors of fried chicken with the sweetness and crunch of Rice Krispie cereal. To make it, chicken pieces are usually coated in a mixture of seasoned flour, then dipped in egg, and finally coated with crushed Rice Krispies for that signature crunch. The result is a golden-brown exterior that's crispy and flavorful, while the chicken inside remains juicy and tender. This meal is perfect for busy weeknights because it's both quick to prepare and satisfying for the whole family. It goes well with a variety of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, or a fresh salad, making it a versatile option that can be tailored to everyone's preferences. The combination of simplicity and deliciousness is what makes it a family favorite!
Recipe:
1 1/2 cups rice krispies, coarsely crushed
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 cup butter, melted
4 boneless chicken breasts halved (about a pound)
In a shallow bowl, combine cereal, flour and seasoning. Place butter in another bowl. Dip chicken in butter, then into cereal mix. Place in a greased 11 x 7 x 2 baking pan. Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until juices run clear.
