1/2 cup

The U.S. Department
of Agriculture, as well as food agencies in the United Kingdom and elsewhere,
advises against washing poultry. Rinsing chicken will not remove or kill much
bacteria, and the splashing of water around the sink can spread the bacteria
found in raw chicken. Cooking poultry to 165 degrees Fahrenheit effectively
destroys the most common culprits behind food-borne illness.
Preparation:
Spray a 13x9-inch baking dish with vegetable spray.
In a
shallow pie plate, combine evaporated milk and soy sauce. In another shallow pie plate,
combine corn flake crumbs, salt, and pepper. Dip chicken into evaporated milk mixture and
then roll in the seasoned crumb mixture.
Place chicken in prepared baking dish; cover with plastic
wrap. Cook in microwave oven on high for 10 minutes; turn dish and bake another 8 to 10
minutes. Remove from microwave and let stand 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
Makes 4 servings.
