As we were meal planning last week, hubby decided that he wanted popcorn chicken for lunch again. I found a recipe on Pinterest months ago that I tried, and everybody LOVES it. You can look at that here. I know the original poster (who is linked to in the recipe) has a printable version.
I know from trial and error (and running out of corn flakes), that you don't want to just use flour for the second coating, it just doesn't work.
With most of this batch, I am baking them, letting them cool, then putting them on a cooling in the freezer to flash freeze for about 10 minutes, then throwing them in a freezer bag. I have about 20 pounds of chicken breast I'm making into popcorn, so this will keep it fresh. Warm it up in the microwave for a few minutes and you are good to go.
I think it's good just plain, the kids like it dipped in ketchup and hubby prefers BBQ sauce.
If you get really adventurous (and love spicy), mix Arby's sauce, Arby's horsey sauce, honey mustard and a squirt of sriracha sauce. Shake it all up so it's coating the chicken and eat with a fork. Now there's some good chicken. But in the interest of my baby's belly, I'm not even trying. LOL
Enjoy!
