Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 cup coarse breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
4 chicken breasts, cut into thin strips (about 1-inch wide) (You'll end up with about 5 strips per breast)
4 tablespoons butter
vegetable oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 435 degrees Fahrenheit and set aside a sheet pan.
  • In a large bowl or plastic Ziploc bag, add the flour, breadcrumbs, paprika, seasoning salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Toss or stir well to combine.
  • Add the chicken strips to the flour mixture and toss very well to coat.
  • Add the butter to the sheet pan and place it in the oven to preheat until the pan is hot and the butter is melted.

  • Turn the chicken strips after 10 minutes in the oven. Spray with a small amount of additional vegetable oil cooking spray when you turn them, if needed.

LOW-FAT BUFFALO CHICKEN STRIPS



Low-Fat Buffalo Chicken Strips image

Easy and low fat! Very tasty. Freezes well, cheaper and better for you than those store bought ones!

Provided by Kim S.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 29m

Yield 9 tenders, 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

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

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.

LOW-FAT FRIED CHICKEN STRIPS



Low-Fat Fried Chicken Strips image

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.
