Tina Woods of Murphy, N.C., sent in this crunchy oven-baked chicken coated in crushed corn flakes. As the mother of two young children, I know you can never have too many variations for tasty chicken cutlets.

Hands on time:   Total time: 30 minutes  Serves: 4

Ingredients:

    1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
In a bowl, combine flour and cayenne pepper, and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Roll chicken in flour mixture to evenly coat each side. Dip chicken into buttermilk and then into cornflake crumbs, pressing so crumbs adhere.
