  3. In a large freezer bag, crush the corn flake cereal into a crumb. Add to a separate bowl and mix with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.​
  4. Dip each chicken cutlet into the egg mixture, then coat it in the corn flake crumb. Transfer to your baking dish and spray the tops with cooking spray. Dust with cayenne powder (optional) for some extra spice.

THE STORY OF SOY SAUCE

Even people who love soy sauce and use it all the time are often surprised to learn what it is and how it’s made. We make ours from just four simple ingredients—water, soybeans, wheat, and salt. Those ingredients are transformed through a traditional brewing process—much like making wine or beer—that has remained unchanged for centuries.
