Ingredients
1 cup crunchy corn cereal (recommended: Cap'n Crunch)
1 cup crispy rice cereal (recommended: Rice Krispies)
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
12 chicken tenders, halved
2 eggs, beaten
2 1/2 cups canola oil
Green Onion Honey Dip, recipe follows
Directions
Put the 2 cereals into a gallon-sized bag
and seal. Place on a flat surface and, using a rolling pin, crush the cereal until it's still slightly chunky.
Pour into a medium sized bowl and add the flour, salt and pepper and mix to combine.
Dip the chicken pieces into the beaten eggs, 1 at a time, and transfer to the breading mix. Coat well and
refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Pour the oil into a large saucepan and place over medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Test the oil by
dropping a bread cube in; if it browns within 1 minute the oil is ready. Drop the chicken nuggets into the hot
oil, 4 pieces at a time, and cook 2 minutes, or until the breading is golden and the chicken is cooked
through. Repeat with the remaining chicken nuggets. Keep warm in a low oven until ready to
serve.
