2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and pickle juice.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the ground cornflakes, panko bread crumbs, paprika, garlic and onion powder.
4. Place the chicken in the egg mixture and allow to soak for 5 minutes, then dredge in the crumb mixture, pressing crumbs into chicken to adhere. Place chicken on prepared baking sheet and generously spray with nonstick cooking spray. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and golden in color.
