Cornflake Cream Chicken

I found this recipe on the What's for Dinner? blog and it sounded too yummy not to try.  I was right....it was D-licious!  Everyone in my family devoured it, which says a lot since my kids can be rather finicky. I served it with roasted garlic asparagus since it is not the healthiest dish but it would have been amazing with a cheesy vegetable casserole.  Maybe next time?!

4-6 Chicken Breasts
2 C Crushed Cornflakes (I used 1C Cornflakes and 1C Corn/Rice Chex because that is what I had on hand and it tasted wonderful)
16 0z Container Sour Cream
1/2 C Parmesan Cheese
1 Tbs Italian Seasoning
1/2 Tbs Garlic Salt
1 stick melted butter

Put cornflakes/chex cereal in a zip lock bag and roll with rolling pin till crumbs.  Your kiddos can help with this part, they will love it!  Mine did!
Mix together cornflakes, Parmesan cheese, garlic salt and Italian seasoning in a shallow dish. (I mixed these together in the morning so we would be ready roll at dinner time.)  Dip chicken in sour cream, make sure to coat it thick. Then dip chicken in the cornflake mixture.  Place in greased baking pan, and drizzle melted butter all over. (I am going to cut back on the butter next time at least by a quarter, maybe half.)  Bake in 400F oven for about 30-45 minutes, or until golden, and done in the center.  Enjoy!
