What ratio of yogurt/honey do you use?
Love this!!!! If you were to use chicken strips, how long on baking time??? Thanks so much!!!!
Maybe, about 15 minutes less time and check for doneness.
This reminds me of the fabulous fried chicken served at the famous Pirate House in Savannah Ga. They have a delicious honey and pecan glaze drizzled over their chicken. I plan to make this very soon.
I will be looking forward to preparing your wonderful recipes.
Do you cover with foil or leave uncovered?
Leave uncovered.
Looks wonderful. On my list to make.
Can i use regular breadcrumbs instead of Corn Flakes???
Yes, you can.
I use the same coating and baking approach using a blend of honey & spicy brown mustard – just an extra layer of flavor
