So my hubby totally loves these and so do I!! It's a great way to get your faux-frying skills on!!

What you need:

2 chicken Breasts (or 8 oz worth) (Cut into your choice of tender size)

1c Original Panko Breadcrumbs

1 Packet of Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Seasoning

Barbecue Seasoning (to taste)

Onion powder (to taste)

Garlic Powder (to taste)

Ground Black Pepper (to taste)

Kosher Salt (a big pinch)

1 egg

Optional: You can use a cookie cooling rack to bake your chicken on and it allows it to get completely crispy on all sides, even the bottom!!

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In one bowl beat egg. In another bowl mix together breadcrumbs and all dry ingredients (I keep it in a tupperware so if I have leftovers it doesn't get wasted). Place some of the breadcrumbs on a plate. Place chicken bits in egg to coat and shake off excess. Roll in breadcrumbs, and place on cookie rack (or cookie sheet). Repeat till all pieces are coated in crunchy goodness, adding excess breadcrumbs to plate as needed.

Place chicken in oven and cook for 15 mins (flip halfway throughout if using cookie sheet, no need to flip if using the rack) Set oven to broil and broil your crispers for 1-3 mins depending on how brown you like them. Remove and enjoy!!! I like them plain but you can serve with lowfat dressings, or low sugar bbq sauce! Let me know what you guys think :smile1:

I'm trying this recipe tonight. I am so tired of just plain chicken!

However, I am curious as to what "Barbecue Seasoning" is?

I have everything but the onion powder and the BBQ seasoning.

If I can add a little recipe to your thread here. If you like chicken wings you can eat this during the mushy phase.

Take chicken meat and cook it in a crockpot in chicken broth for 6 hours on med/high until it falls apart with fork. (you can skip this step by just getting rotssory (sp) chicken from the store)

Take 1 part butter and 1 part hot sauce and sautee in a sauce pan for about 1 minutes stirring.

Pour over the shredded chicken and top with bluecheese or ranch.

If you are on mushy stage cook the chicken even longer.
