In a shallow dish, mix together flour and cornstarch. Set aside.
In a large bowl mix together eggs. Set aside.
In another shallow dish, add crushed croutons. Set side.
With one hand place the chicken in the flour mixture.
With the other hand, coat the chicken in flour and shake off excess.
Place the chicken in the egg mixture and coat with the egg.
(Be sure to use one hand for the dry ingredients and the other for the wet ingredients to keep from clumping)
Shake off the excess egg and then place the chicken in the croutons.
Cover with croutons, being sure to pat them on so that they stick better.
Place coated chicken on the grilll pan.
Repeat until all of the chicken is coated.
Baked for 30 minutes. (may need more or less time depending on thickness)
