Oatmeal Crusted Chicken Tenders Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°.
• Place oats in a food processor, and process for 20 seconds or until coarsely ground. Add cheese, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pulse to combine, and place in a shallow bowl.
• Place each chicken breast tender between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet. Coat both sides of tenders with cooking spray; dredge tenders in oat mixture.
• Place tenders on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes or until browned.
• Serve with dressings for dipping.

Steps:

• In a large zip-top plastic bag, combine the oats, flour, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Seal the bag and shake to combine. Using a brush or spoon, coat the chicken pieces all over with the marmalade. Add the chicken to the oat mixture, seal the bag, and shake to coat the pieces evenly.
• Refrigerate the chicken for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator or microwave for about 4 minutes on LOW before baking.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Transfer the chicken pieces from the bag to the prepared baking sheet and spray the tops of them with cooking spray. Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes (no need to turn them). Serve hot.

Steps:

• Marinate the chicken pieces with lemon juice and 1/4 tsp salt.
• Preheat oven to 200°C.
• In a bowl, combine together oatmeal, chili powder, black pepper powder and the remaining salt.
• In another bowl, lightly whip an egg white with 1 tbsp water.
• Drain chicken well, dip into egg white and then into the oatmeal mixture to coat each piece evenly.
• Place on a well-greased tray.
• Bake for 20 minutes on one side.
• Turn onto the other side and bake for 15 minutes on the other side until the chicken pieces are well browned.
• Serve hot with tomato or chili sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°; coat a 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a shallow bowl or large resealable plastic bag, combine oats, paprika, chili powder, salt if desired, garlic powder, cumin and pepper. Dip chicken in milk, then coat with oat mixture. Place in prepared baking dish. Drizzle with butter. Bake, uncovered, until juices run clear and thermometer reads 170° when inserted into thickest part of chicken, 45-50 minutes.

Steps:

• Pulse 1/2 cup oats in a food processor until finely ground. Add cheese, parsley, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and remaining 1/4 cup oats. Pulse just to combine. Transfer mixture to a shallow bowl.
• Remove tenders from chicken; reserve for another use. Pound chicken to a 1/2-inch thickness. Coat with 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Cover chicken in oat mixture, pressing lightly to adhere.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. When it shimmers, add half of chicken in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack. Wipe skillet clean and repeat process with 2 more tablespoons oil and remaining chicken. Serve with greens.
