Do you want to delight your grandchildren at dinner, but don’t want to serve them something that is entirely unhealthy? Well, we’ve got you covered with this baked garlic popcorn chicken recipe. Yes, that’s correct, we’re not going to be frying this chicken. For this dish, all you need to do is coat some pieces of chicken in the crunchy and perfectly-seasoned batter, place them on a sheet pan and bake in the oven. The result is a light meal (or snack) that everybody will love.

Prep Time 30 minutes

Serves: 4

Difficulty Level: Low

Sublime Popcorn Chicken

Ingredients for popcorn chicken:

Chicken breast - 2 pounds

Garlic - 10 cloves (minced)

Salt - 2 tsp. (divided)

Black pepper - 2 tsp. (divided)

cornflakes - 6 cups

Parmesan cheese - 1/2 cup (grated)

Paprika - 1 tsp.

Garlic powder - 1 1/2 tsp.

All-Purpose flour - 1 cup

Buttermilk - 1/2 cup

Cooking spray - as needed

Method of preparing the popcorn chicken:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the chopped chicken pieces, minced garlic, 1 tsp. of salt, and 1 tsp. of black pepper. Set aside.
In a food processor bowl, add the cornflakes, Parmesan cheese, the remaining salt and pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Process until the cornflakes are broken down into a fine crumble (but not powdery). Place the mixture into a medium-sized bowl and set aside.
Pour the flour into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken pieces to the bag and toss until evenly coated in flour.
Place the flour-coated chicken into a medium-sized bowl. Drizzle with the buttermilk, and toss to coat.
Working in batches, add some chicken to the cornflake mixture and toss to coat. Place the coated chicken in the prepared sheet pan, and spray with cooking spray.
Bake for roughly 20 minutes, or until the chicken has turned brown and crispy.
