Health Twist

To slash the fat to 4 grams and the calories to only 180 per serving, use 1/4 cup fat-free (skim) milk instead of the butter and 1 tablespoon milk, and use 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves instead of the drumsticks.

How-To

Place cereal between sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap or in a plastic bag; crush with a rolling pin. Or crush in a blender or food processor.

Substitution

No corn flakes on hand? Just mix 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese with 2/3 cup plain or seasoned dry bread crumbs for a tasty coating.
