Oven-Fried Chicken Fingers
- 2 1/2 lb skinless boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 7 cups cornflakes (7 oz), coarsely crushed
- Accompaniments: honey mustard sauce and homemade ketchup
- Put oven racks in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 425F.
- Butter 2 large shallow (1 inch deep) baking pans.
- Gently pound chicken between sheets of plastic wrap with flat side of a meat pounder or with a rolling pin until 1/3 inch thick.
- Cut chicken lengthwise into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
- Stir together butter, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
- Put cornflakes in another shallow dish.
- Working with 1 strip at a time, dip in butter, then dredge in cornflakes, pressing flakes firmly to help adhere.
- Transfer as coated to baking pans.
- Bake, switching position of pans halfway through baking, until chicken is golden and cooked through, about 15 minutes total.
- Cool chicken in pans on racks to room temperature (crust will firm up as it cools).
