Cornflake Chicken Sliders w/buttery Bowties

(Chicken Sliders w/cornflake breading)
So, yesterday I worked during the day and didn't get home until about 6pm. I needed to find something easy and tasty to cook that wouldn't take much time. I had some ground chicken sliders that I thawed earlier that day. I had made them once before and the kids loved them, so I decided that would be dinner!
(The kids' plate: bowties, sliders cut up and ranch dressing for dipping.)
I mixed regular seasoned bread crumbs with crumbled up cornflakes. I used an egg/milk wash and dipped the slider patties in that first then coated them with the bread crumb mixture.


I tossed them in the frying pan and browned them for about 3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. I had the heat on medium so the outside and inside would cook evenly.

While those were cooking, I boiled some bowtie pasta with a pinch of salt, and a drop of olive oil (to prevent the pasta from sticking together.)

Once the pasta was ready, I drained it, tossed in about a tablespoon of butter, some of the Badia seasoning (get some! It's sooo good!), a dash of salt, and sprinkled generously with parmesan cheese. I let that sit while I finished the sliders.

After they were all done, I plated everything. This was a simple, yet really filling meal that is quick and very tasty!
