DIRECTIONS:
- Whisk yogurt, egg, milk/water, honey, and kosher salt in a large container or bowl. Place chicken in mixture, coat entirely, cover with lid, and chill at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
- Place oven rack in middle position, and heat oven to 400˚. Line rimmed baking sheet with foil and brush with oil. Remove chicken from marinade and scrape off as much liquid as possible. Reserve marinade in bowl for dredging.
- Whisk cornmeal with paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, oregano, and sea salt in clean bowl.
- Working one piece at a time, coat chicken in cornmeal mixture, then dip in reserved marinade, and finally drop in bag/bowl with crushed corn flakes. Press corn flakes into chicken to adhere. Place chicken, evenly spaced, on baking sheet.
- Bake chicken pieces until golden and crispy, and chicken is cooked through (160˚ for white meat, 170˚ for dark), about 30-35 minutes.
- Remove from oven, and let chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
