Combine cornflake crumbs, green onion and remaining 1 tablespoon cajun

Dip each chicken strips into eggs and then into crumb mixture.  Place coated
chicken strips on prepared baking sheet.

Bake chicken strips 8 to 10 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in

vegetable cutouts!  Use a small metal cookie cutter or sharp kinfe to cut
Halloween shapes from bell peppers, carrots, parsnips, squash, eggplant or
tomatoes.
