Ingredients

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup buttermilk, divided
2 large eggs
2 cups crushed cornflakes
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup apricot preserves
2 tablespoons prepared mustard

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Place flour and 1/4 cup buttermilk in separate shallow bowls. In another shallow bowl, whisk eggs and remaining 1/4 cup buttermilk. In a fourth shallow bowl, combine cornflakes, onion powder, garlic salt, salt, oregano and pepper. Dip chicken in buttermilk, then dip in flour to coat all sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg mixture and then cornflake mixture, patting to help coating adhere. Arrange chicken in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan.
Bake until juices run clear, 15-18 minutes. In a small bowl, combine apricot preserves and mustard. Serve with chicken.
