Fili breaded with corn flakes. Chicken breasts in corn flakes

Good afternoon!

I saw one of my friends have the idea to bread a chicken in corn flakes. I decided to take it on board and try this method. I bought a whole pack of cereal. The rest was at home.
I will not fry wings, but chicken fillet. This is my tricky move)) - I like wings less)))

So let's get started. I cut the chicken fillet into small pieces. I had one chicken breast. It consists of two parts. There is only one in the photo.

Now we will add spices from those that are at home.

Crack one egg into a separate bowl. And in another we pour the flakes themselves.

I have 2 eggs in the photo, but one is enough for this amount of chicken!

It is better to grind the flakes beforehand. I did it right on the plate.

Beat the egg with a fork or whisk, add a little salt.

Now let's start the frying process. Pour the oil into the container where we will cook, it is better not to regret it.

And send it to the pan.

And do the same with all the other pieces.

Reduce the fire on the mono stove a little. Since my chicken does not "drown" in oil entirely, I slightly covered the lid so that the meat was not raw.


Fry from both sides to the same golden brown, for which everything was started, put the pieces on a napkin to let excess oil drain.

Original crispy crust for meat and fish from oatmeal.

Delicate shell of semolina.

Healthy and tasty breading in coarse cornmeal.

Most of us are accustomed to roll meat, fish, vegetables before frying. breadcrumbs or flour.

By the way, it will be much tastier if you make the breadcrumbs yourself from a high-quality white bun. First dry it, then crush it on the board with a rolling pin.

Actually the kinds breading composition much more. For example, in America, meat and fish are often breaded in cornmeal. Our German relatives are accustomed to using oatmeal for this purpose and semolina. It turns out the same delicate shell, as from ground crackers.

To get a thin crispy crust, it is enough to roll meat, fish, etc. in dry semolina, cornmeal or oatmeal.

If you additionally use a lezon (in French, liaison), a mixture of an egg with milk or another dairy product, the dish turns out to be more tender, juicier, because the breading can be done in several layers. It sticks stronger and better protects food from loss of juice during frying.

Salt, pepper and other spices are added to the lezon to taste. Instead of milk, pure water can be added or only broken eggs can be used.

AT classical cuisine breaded foods fried in in large numbers fat deep-fried or in a frying pan. Then finished fried pieces laid out on a wire rack or towel to remove excess fat.

To fry pieces of meat (fish, etc.) from all sides, it is not at all necessary that they float in fat and absorb a lot of it.

Nowadays, many have learned to fry in a pan with a thin layer vegetable oil. Breaded foods are gently turned while frying until browned on all sides. This does not take much time. With this method, less oil is absorbed.

The sequence of the breading process depends on the condition of the product surface: wet, dry, sticky, smooth, rough. Of course, on a smooth and dry surface, the breading mixture without an ice cream will not stick well. It's more about fish.

German chefs advise not to keep meat or fish open for a long time on the table so that the top layer does not dry out.

If this happens, you can correct the situation - salt and rub salt into meat or fish. Through a short time salt will attract meat or fish juice to the surface.

You can first dip in lezon, and then in flour, again in an egg with milk, then again in a breadcrumb mixture.

Too wet meat or fish should be dried with a paper towel before breading.

How to bread meat, poultry, fish

Salt and pepper prepared meat or fish, if we are preparing chops, beat off.

Then the Germans adopted the following sequence:

  1. Roll pieces of meat or fish in ordinary flour.
  2. Dip in egg and milk mixture.
  3. Roll in breadcrumbs or other breading made from cereals or flour.
  4. Fry.

In fact, many cook the way they like best.

Delicious, tender and less calorie it turns out, if we make it shorter:

  1. It is good to roll the prepared pieces in flour.
  2. Dip in the egg-milk mixture, lift off the plate and let the excess ice run off.
  3. Fry in a small amount of oil.

Oatmeal or semolina breading

  1. Pepper, salt, beat off chicken or fish, if necessary.
  2. Roll pieces of meat or fish in wheat flour.
  3. Dip in ice cream.
  4. Roll in oatmeal or semolina.
  5. Fry in a pan with oil on both sides.
  6. If the meat is quite wet, such as defrosted chicken fillet, then you can simply roll in oatmeal and immediately fry, there will be a more crispy option.

One minus, the flakes stick worse to the meat than with the ice cream, and some of them will come off and remain in the pan. Photo of breading with only one oatmeal without ice cream at the beginning of the article.

Cornmeal breading

Tastier and healthier is obtained from wholemeal flour, i.e. from cornmeal flour as in this one.

Everything is exactly the same as with oatmeal or semolina, only without a lezon, the breading holds tight and turns out to be beautiful golden and does not burn so quickly.

note If you are using frozen foods, they must be completely defrosted.

We are all used to using breading to fry meat or fish. It helps to keep juiciness and contributes to the formation of a dense ruddy, and sometimes crispy shell-crust, which gives the meat or fish an additional original taste. Breading has many advantages, but usually, if wheat flour is used, it has such an unpleasant property - it burns in hot oil, turning it into a brown unappetizing slurry.
