Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1 1/4 pounds)
  • 1 1/2 cups Country® Corn Flakes cereal
  • 1/2 cup Original Bisquick™ Baking Mix
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Steps

  • 1
    Flatten each chicken breast half to 1/4-inch thickness between sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap.
  • 2
    Crush cereal. Mix cereal, Bisquick and Cajun seasoning. Dip chicken into water, then coat with cereal mixture.

    Melt butter in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken in butter 8 to 10 minutes, turning once, until juice is no longer pink when centers of thickest pieces are cut.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Have a Cajun party! Play New Orleans jazz music, and serve Cajun Chicken sprinkled with toasted pecans. Or serve with simple red beans and rice.
  • tip 2
    No Cajun seasoning on hand? Experiment with other blends and herbs, such as Italian blends, thyme or even chili powder.
  • tip 3
    Crush cereal by placing it in a plastic bag or between sheets of waxed paper and crushing with a rolling pin or a small pot. Speed through the process with a blender or food processor if available.
