The entire family will love this crispy oven baked chicken. Great for family picnics!

Ingredients:

Chicken:
1/2 C fat-free or low-fat buttermilk
4 chicken breasts with ribs, skinless or 1 pound catfish fillets

Coating:
1.25 cup corn flake crumbs
1/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
pinch of cayenne pepper

Directions:

1	Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
2	Combine ingredients for breading in a shallow pan or medium-sized mixing bowl.
3	Rinse chicken breasts in cold running water, remove skin and excess fat and pat dry. If using catfish, rinse fillets and pat dry.
4	Dip the meat side of the chicken into buttermilk and then dip into the breading mixture. Press down firmly so the breading sticks to the chicken.
5	Place the chicken breaded side up on a lightly oiled pan; spray the top with cooking spray. Bake until well done, about 30 minutes. If using fish, the cooking time will be about 20 minutes. Serves 4 (each serving: 4 oz chicken or fish).
6	ENJOY!
