Place creal and seasonings in shallow dish,
stirring well to combine. Pour
milk into shallow bowl. Dip chicken in milk; dredge in cereal
mixture.
Place coated chicken breasts in baking dish with thickest portions
toward
the outside of the dish. Cover with waxed paper and microwave
at high power
for 12 minutes, or until chicken is done. Rotate dish 1/2 turn
every 4
minutes. Chicken may also be baked in oven, preheated to 350
degrees. Cook

COUNTRY CREAM GRAVY
1 Tbs margarine 1 Tbs all purpose flour 1/2 cup evaporated skimmed
milk
1/4 cup chicken stock (homemade is best, or use undiluted, canned
chicken
broth 1 tsp dry sherry 1/4 tsp ground WHITE pepper 2 Tbs chopped
fresh chives.
To make gravy, place margarine in a 4 cup glass measure and
microwave at
hight for 30 seconds or until melted. Add flour, stir until
smooth.
Gradually add milk, broth and sherry; stir until smooth. Microwave
at high
for 3-5 minutes, stirring once. Stir in pepper and chives. Margarine
can
also be melted in saucepan on stove. Add flour and stir over
medium flame
until margarine is bubbling and smooth. Gradually add milk,
broth and
sherry, stirring until smooth and thick. Add pepper and chives.
Serve at
once. NOTE: I felt the gravy was sort of bland tasting, so I
added it to
the pan in which I had cooked the chicken. It picked up the
flavor from the
drippings, as well as a little carmel color. It looked and tasted
better
than the original recipe. However, since my husband is a GRAVY
FREAK, I
made double recipe of the gravy. He saved the left overs and
ate it later,
for breakfast, on biscuits. His idea, not mine.
Makes 6 servings.
