Crunchy Crumb Chicken


I was really surprised how good this tasted since I created this recipe and used left over cereal crumbs! Usually my creations take about 20 revisions before I'm satisfied to post them lol!

4 skinned chicken drumsticks - thawed

1 or 2 cups dry cereal

1 tsp Italian seasoning

1 tsp dry parsley

2 egg whites

Pre-heat oven to 350*. Line a baking pan with tin foil and grease. In a zip-locked bag mix cereal, parsley and seasonings. Lightly beat the egg whites in a bowl.

Dip the drumsticks in the egg whites then toss them in the bag with the cereal until they are coated all over with cereal. Now place the drumsticks in your baking pan. Cook for 30 mins then check them and turn them over. They will usually need baked for another 30 mins. When done the juices will run clear and the cereal will be golden brown.

Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo


This version is a little healthier then the common alfredo sauce since it uses cream cheese or whipping cream and this recipe calls for milk. You can use low fat or soy milk too. I didn't have fettuccine noodles so I just used what I had. It still tastes just the same either way!

12 oz. fettuccine noodles, cooked and drained
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts or thighs
2 C. milk
1 Tbsp. corn starch, thinned with milk
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning
3/4 C. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. salt
  • Cook noodles, drain & set aside.
  • In a frying pan over medium heat add 1 tsp. oil when hot cook chicken until juices run clear. You can cut the chicken into cubes, strips or just leave it whole.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat combine milk & corn starch stirring constantly until simmering. Add pepper, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt & Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring so it won't stick and burn on bottom of pan. Simmer until sauce has thickened.
  • Stir noodles, chicken, and sauce together and serve hot. Yield: 6 servings
