Sheet Pan Blackened Chicken Strips Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes until it is smoking hot.
• Mix together the paprika, salt, cayenne, cumin, thyme, white pepper, and onion powder. Oil the chicken breasts with cooking spray on both sides, then coat the chicken breasts evenly with the spice mixture.
• Place the chicken in the hot pan, and cook for 1 minute. Turn, and cook 1 minute on other side. Place the breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Slice the chicken breasts into strips.
• In a medium bowl, add the eggs and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Whisk to combine.
• In a large bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs, paprika, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
• Place the flour in another medium bowl.
• Coat the chicken strips in the flour, then in the eggs, then in the bread crumbs and place on a baking sheet.
• Cut the broccoli into florets.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190˚C) and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, toss the broccoli florets with 1 tablespoon olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and half of the minced garlic. Arrange on half of the remaining baking sheet.
• Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise, then slice into half-moons.
• Toss the sweet potatoes in a large bowl with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, and minced garlic, and place on the baking sheet next to the broccoli.
• Bake both baking sheets simultaneously, until the veggies are browned and the chicken is crisp, about 20 minutes.
• Make the dipping sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, mustard, and honey in a small bowl.
• Serve the chicken and veggies with the dipping sauce, BBQ sauce, and ketchup, if using.
• Enjoy!
