💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to enhance flavor and tenderness.
- ✓Use a food processor to crush corn flakes quickly for a finer dredging texture.
- ✓If you don't have hot relish, substitute with a mix of sriracha and chopped pickles.
- ✓Ensure the chicken is patted dry before dredging to help the coating stick better.
