mustard, paprika, and garlic powder in a small bowl; stir well. Combine
cornflakes and pecans in a shallow dish; stir well. Brush both sides of

You would expect Southern fried chicken to be served with lots of calories
and fat. Not our version, though we baked the chicken instead of frying
it, and we gave it a crisp, greaseless crust made from crushed cornflakes
and chopped pecans.
