Viking Chicken Fingers

Even Vikings loved fried chicken! This oven-fried recipe cuts down on calories and fats. Bake it the night before, then serve it the next day at your dragon party.

2/3 cup buttermilk
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts - cut into 1 1/2-inch strips
1 cup corn flakes cereal, crushed
1 cup all purpose flour
2 packages (1 ounce each) ranch dressing mix (dry)
Cooking spray

Step One: Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray.

Step Two: Pour buttermilk into shallow glass bowl. Add chicken strips; turn to coat. Let stand 5 minutes.

Step Three: Meanwhile, in 2-quart resealable food-storage plastic bag, crush cereal with rolling pin. Add flour and dressing mix (dry) to cereal in bag. Remove chicken from buttermilk; discard buttermilk. Add chicken to cereal mixture. Seal bag; shake to coat.

Step Four: Place chicken on cookie sheet. Spray with cooking spray. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Turn strips; bake about 20 minutes longer or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
