Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 2 ½ cups whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs
  • 4 large egg whites
  • 2 lbs. chicken tenders
  • salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 450°.              
  2. Place a wire rack on a foil-lined baking sheet, and set it aside.
  3. Put the flour in a shallow dish.
  4. Put the panko in another shallow dish.
  5.  In a medium bowl, whip the egg whites with a whisk until they are extremely foamy but not quite holding peaks.
  6. Working in batches, dredge the chicken tenders in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  7. Add the chicken to the egg whites and toss to coat them completely.
  8. Add the chicken, a few pieces at a time to the panko and coat completely.  Spread the chicken out on the wire rack.
  9. Season the chicken well with salt and pepper, and spray it lightly with cooking spray.
  10.  Bake the tenders until the breading is golden and crispy and the chicken is cooked through, about 14 minutes a side.
  11. Remove from oven and using a pastry brush, brush the chicken fingers with the Buffalo sauce.
