CRISPY OVEN FRIED BUFFALO CHICKEN STRIPS



Crispy Oven Fried Buffalo Chicken Strips image

I finally found a way to make my chicken fingers crispy! I try not to eat fried foods but I love fried chicken and chicken fingers and chicken nuggets! Everytime I try to make 'oven fried chicken' with regular bread crumbs or corn flakes or potato chips, it always ends up soggy. Well.. I finally tried Panko and it is a Godsend! And I've found the sour cream also helps a ton! For dips I use Blue Cheese and also mixed the Buffalo sauce with some honey and it turned out great. Enjoy!

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.

WW 6 PT. BUFFALO CHICKEN STRIPS



Ww 6 Pt. Buffalo Chicken Strips image

I CORRECTED MY TYPO! I had originally mistakingly listed 2 teaspoons of salt for this recipe, instead of 1/2 teaspoon. The funny thing is, I don't usually even use salt! :) This is a great replacement to the high fat and calories found in hot wings. Tasty, low fat and easy to make. The fibre content of these is incredibly high, which is great for your health. Serve these in a wrap with crisp, fresh lettuce or with anything else that sounds good with hot strips. Enjoy!

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup egg white (I buy them by the carton so I don't know how many eggs you would need)
1 cup Fiber One cereal, original
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup Frank's red hot sauce
1 tablespoon butter (use light if you can find it)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Wash and cut chicken breasts into strips that are approximately 1 1/2 inches wide. You can even pound the breast a little thinner first and then cut. Set aside.
  • In a food processor, combine cereal, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika and pepper and mix to a fine powder or consistency like breadcrumbs. Pour mixture into a shallow bowl or onto a small plate. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, melt butter and then add in 3/4 cup of the hot sauce. Mix well and warm until heated, but not bubbling or boiling. Pour into a small, shallow bowl, and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix egg whites with the remaining 1/4 cup of hot sauce. Now take each chicken strip, and coat with egg and hot sauce mixture. Shake off all excess egg from the meat. Coat chicken in cereal mix until strip is fully breaded. Lay strip on baking sheet. Repeat until all pieces of chicken are breaded and on the baking sheet. Now, with a brush or spoon, drizzle about 3/4 hot sauce and butter mixture over all the chicken pieces. Make sure to coat well.
  • Bake chicken at 400 degrees until breading becomes crispy and chicken is cooked through (approximately 15-20 minutes). Serve with remaining hot sauce mixture for dipping.

Provided by Kattygirl

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Spicy

Time 1h55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups low-fat buttermilk
½ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into strips
1 (8 ounce) package panko bread crumbs
1 cup liquid egg substitute (such as Egg Beaters®)
cooking spray
1 dash hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®), or to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk together the buttermilk and 1/2 cup hot pepper sauce in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the chicken breast strips, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet; set aside. Remove the chicken from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place the panko bread crumbs and egg substitute in separate dishes. Gently press the chicken into the bread crumbs to coat and shake off the excess. Dip into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs again. Gently toss between your hands so any bread crumbs that haven't stuck can fall away. Arrange the breaded chicken on the prepared baking sheet. Spray chicken strips lightly with cooking spray.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then gently flip the chicken strips and spray with cooking spray again. Continue baking the chicken until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, about 10 minutes more. Add a dash more of the hot pepper sauce, a return to oven. Bake until the sauce dries, about 5 minutes.
