Grilled Chicken with Corn Flakes

….Meeting good neighbors when moving is a great blessing to anyone. When my family moved to America, we were lucky. A Korean woman lived next door, who was LACEY’s violin teacher’s sister. Being able to have a good conversation with her was luck like winning the lottery. She even made food for my daughters. My daughters really liked this dish back in those days. I learned this recipe from her then, and this food reminds me of a mistake I made. I set the oven temperature in Celsius, when my oven had to be Fahrenheit. It was the first time we lived in America where I couldn’t solve even a small thing unless someone taught me. Wherever you live, good neighbors are like family and are the joy of life. I leave this recipe as a memory and wonder if it will taste as good as it did back then…
