Steps:

  • . Preheat oven to 450F (230C).
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set a wire rack on top.
  • Spray rack with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk buttermilk with egg white, add chicken and turn to evenly coat.
  • Measure flour, salt, garlic powder, oregano, chili powder and baking powder into a large plastic bag.
  • Close top and gently shake to evenly mix.
  • Remove chicken, one piece at a time, from buttermilk and shake off excess liquid, then place in bag.
  • Close top and shake gently to evenly coat.
  • Remove from bag, shaking off excess coating, then place on rack, repeat with remaining chicken, one piece at a time.
  • Discard any remaining milk and flour mixtures.
  • Using a brush, lightly dab oil as evenly as possible over coating on chicken.
  • Bake in centre of preheated oven until coating is crisp and golden, about 30 minutes.
  • TIP:.
  • If you have time, let chicken marinate in buttermilk before roasting. This makes it even more tender and adds tang, too! Place chicken and buttermilk mixture in a large plastic bag. Push chicken down into marinade, then squeeze out as much air as possible from bag. Seal tightly with an elastic band as close to chicken as possible. Place in a large bowl. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Then proceed with recipe as written.

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 -2 tablespoon olive oil

LOW-FAT FRIED CHICKEN STRIPS

These chicken strips are from Cooking Light Magazine's recipe-"Fried Chicken Salad". My kids did not care to much for all of it together as a salad, but we all love the chicken strips. I always double the recipe and freeze half for another time. They are simply delicious. I won't buy another pre-frozen manufactured chicken nugget or strip again.

Steps:

  • Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix eggs and water together in a small bowl.
  • Place some chicken strips in the flour mixture to coat, then gently shake to remove any excess flour. Coat strips in egg. Return to the flour mixture and coat again; repeat with egg mixture. Coat once more in the flour mixture, placing strips on a plate while you continue with remaining chicken.
  • Let strips sit for 5 minutes to allow flour to set.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); oil is ready if you drop some water in and it sizzles.
  • Working in batches if needed, place strips in the hot oil. Cook for 8 minutes. Turn over and continue to cook until golden brown, no longer pink in the centers, and juices run clear, about 8 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Place strips on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Rinse chicken strips, lay on paper towels to dry.
  • Dredge each strip in flour, then RedHot sauce, then Panko bread crumbs.
  • Lay on sprayed baking sheet (or parchment covered baking sheet).
  • Bake for 17 minutes at 400 degrees.
  • You can use regular bread crumbs. The critical thing is not to overcook these. They should be soft and moist. If you cut breasts into strips, you should adjust the cooking time (less time if you slice them thinner than tenders, more if you slice them thicker). We like to serve them with extra Frank's RedHot Sauce. My package of tenders yeilded 9 tenders, I'm calling 3 tenders a serving.

2 lbs chicken tenders
1/3 cup flour
1 cup Frank's red hot sauce
1 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
