Ingredients

• Spray cooking spray
• 4 Skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 5 Cups dry sweetened cereal, crushed

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Place the crushed cereal in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken breasts to the bag one at a time, seal, and shake until each piece is thoroughly coated with the cereal crumbs.
3. Arrange the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced for even cooking.
4. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) for safe consumption.
5. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and flavorful bite.

Enjoy this sweet and crunchy twist on oven-baked chicken, perfect for any occasion!
