Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Rinse chicken, and pat dry. Season generously with salt and pepper. Crush enough cornflakes in a food processor to get 4 cups worth crushed cornflakes. Cut chicken into strips. You can also use drumsticks.
In a small bowl, whisk eggs with 2 tablespoon water. In a large bowl, mix cornflakes with oil, cayenne, and 1 teaspoon salt.
Working with one piece at a time, dip chicken in egg mixture, then coat with seasoned cornflakes, pressing flakes to help them adhere. Transfer coated pieces to a rimmed baking sheet.
Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 30 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper before serving. Serve with steamed cabbage by chopping cabbage into long strips and placing cabbage in a steamer/rice cooker for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt.
