Step 1

Move one of the oven racks to the upper-middle part and preheat oven to 450ºF.

Step 2

Cover a large cooking tray with parchment paper.

Step 3

Place three large bowls one next to another and fill the first one with flour, the second with eggs and the last one with crushed corn flakes.

Step 4

Dip each piece of chicken in flour and egg and cover with crushed cornflakes, while gently pressing to coat. Place on cooking tray.

Step 5

Bake in the oven for about 13 minutes, until chicken is cooked through and cornflakes are golden brown.

Step 6

Meanwhile put all the ingredients for the sauce- except for cornstarch – in a medium size pot and bring to a gentle boil. Give the cornstarch and water a quick stir and slow add to the sauce while stirring. Cook for a minute until sauce thickens and turn the heat off.

Step 7

Take chicken out of the oven and transfer to a large pan. Turn the heat on to low and pour sauce over the chicken, coating each piece evenly while tossing. *If you are adding sesame seeds, sesame oil and dried red chiles, this is the time to add them.

Step 8

Turn the heat off, transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
