Bran Cereal Fried Chicken Recipes

CRISPY BAKED CEREAL CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C); grease a 9x12 inch baking dish.
• Place the cereal in a large plastic zipper bag and crush the cereal into crumbs. Add the garlic salt and seasoned salt; shake the mixture together in the bag to combine. Pour the cereal crumb mixture out into a shallow bowl.
• In another shallow bowl, beat the egg with the milk. Dip each chicken breast half into the milk mixture, then into the crumb mixture, coating the chicken well with crumbs. Place the coated chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the cereal coating is golden brown, the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

DELICIOUS OAT BRAN CEREAL

Steps:

• Combine water, cinnamon, prunes, and sugar substitute in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a boil; stir in the oat bran and boil for 2 minutes.

CRISPY RICE CEREAL-COATED FRIED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Pour the oil halfway up the sides of a very large cast-iron skillet. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Line a second rimmed baking sheet with a cooling rack. While the oil heats, combine the flour and House Seasoning in a shallow dish. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a separate shallow dish. Place the crushed cereal in a third shallow dish. Season the cereal with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle the drumsticks with salt and pepper. Dip the chicken in the seasoned flour and coat completely. Dip in the egg mixture, then dredge in the rice cereal, pressing to coat evenly. Place on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Fry the chicken, in batches, in the hot oil until golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest portion (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees F, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove to the wire rack to drain.
• Stir together the garlic and onion powders, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.

BRAN FLAKE CHICKEN FINGERS

Steps:

• Rinse & pat chicken dry (with paper towel). Preheat oven to 400F and, using Becel spray, lightly grease cookie sheet. Cut each chicken breast into 5 strip's and set aside on plate/cutting board.
• In a food processor pulse bran flakes until partly crumbled, then add parm and seasonings. Grind the mix until it resembles fine bread crumbs. (fyi: you can add more or less seasonings depending on your preference!).
• Dump crumb mix into the Zippy bag and set aside. In a bowl lightly beat together the egg whites and milk, just until blended (should not get to frothy stage).
• Next, dunk all chicken pieces into egg/milk bath then drop into bag of crumbs. Seal the bag tight and shake, shake, shake till the chicken pieces are coated in crumb mix. Arrange on cookie sheet and bake in oven 10 min's, flip pieces and bake another 5-8 min's.
• Serve with fav. dipping sauce or eat "as is" -- Enjoy!

HOMEMADE BRAN FLAKE CEREAL (WITH A NUTTY TWIST)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, sift together all dry ingredients. Add milk and water and mix well.
• Cut parchment paper into two 12 x 16 pieces.
• Lay one piece of parchment on a flat surface and scoop half of the dough onto the center. Flatten dough by hand and cover entire parchment with clear plastic wrap. Roll out the dough over the plastic wrap.
• The goal is to make the dough extremely thin with areas of near transparency. You may notice that you are in effect making one huge bran flake at this point.
• Remove the plastic wrap and place the dough (on the parchment) onto a 14 x 16 flat sheet pan. Cook for 10 minutes checking often after 5 minutes. A dough this thin will burn easily if left in too long.
• The resulting product after cooking will be a leathery thin cracker (crunchy at the edges).
• Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
• Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the other half of your dough.
• Reduce oven temperature to 275°F.
• After both huge bran flakes have completely cooled, rip and crack them into the sized flakes you are most familiar with (about 3/4 of an inch).
• Place all flakes on a large cookie sheet and cook at the reduced temperature for 20 minutes, stirring the and flipping the flakes every five minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven and allow flakes to cool completely.
• Serve with milk and fresh fruit. Stores well in a sealed container for up to two weeks.
