Ingredients

¼ cup butter, melted
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup crispy rice cereal
½ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut in half
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a medium baking dish with 1/4 cup melted butter.
Mix flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a shallow dish. Beat together egg and milk in a second dish. Mix cheese, cereal, and bread crumbs in a third dish.
Dredge chicken pieces in flour mixture, dip in egg mixture, then press in breadcrumb mixture to coat. Arrange in the prepared baking dish. Drizzle 2 tablespoons butter evenly over chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven until coating is golden brown and chicken juices run clear, about 35 minutes.
