1/4 cup Dijon mustard

2 eggs

2 garlic cloves, minced

3 cups gluten-free cornflakes (preferably organic, non-GMO)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into strips

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small food processor, pulse the cornflakes with the salt and paprika until finely ground. Remove to a shallow bowl and drizzle in the olive oil. Whisk with a fork until the cornflake crumbs are coated and not clumping together. In a second bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Dijon and garlic. Add the chicken and toss until well coated. Working one by one, dredge the chicken in the cornflake mixture, shaking off any excess. Dip the tenders in the egg and return them to the cornflakes, pressing down until fully coated. Arrange the tenders in an even layer on the baking sheet. Bake in the oven until golden and crispy, 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to cool slightly on the tray, then serve alongside ketchup and mustard.

Food Joke

A mild-mannered man was tired of being bossed around by his wife; so he went to a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist said he needed to build his self-esteem, and so gave him a book on assertiveness, which he read on the way home. He had finished the book by the time he reached his house. The man stormed into the house and walked up to his wife. Pointing a finger in her face, he said, "From now on, I want you to know that I am the man of this house, and my word is law! I want you to prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm finished eating my meal, I expect a sumptuous dessert afterward. Then, after dinner, you're going to draw me my bath so I can relax. And when I'm finished with my bath, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?" "The funeral director," said his wife.
