Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Place the Captain Crunch cereal in a resealable plastic bag and crush into coarse crumbs. Transfer to a shallow dish.

  3. In a separate shallow dish, whisk together the flour, salt, and pepper.

  4. In another bowl, beat the eggs and milk until well combined to create an egg wash.

  5. Dip each chicken breast into the flour mixture, shaking off excess, then dip into the egg wash, allowing excess to drip off, and coat evenly with the crushed Captain Crunch cereal.

  6. Place the coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until cooked through and coating is crispy and golden brown.

  7. While the chicken bakes, prepare the peanut butter sauce by combining peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and heated through.

  8. Remove chicken from oven and let rest for a few minutes before slicing or serving whole.

  9. Drizzle the warm peanut butter sauce over the chicken, garnish with chopped green onions, and serve immediately.
