Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into thin strips, roughly the size of a finger, to form goujons.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg whites and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Add the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the egg and yogurt mixture, and mix well.
In another shallow bowl, combine the high-protein panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Dip each chicken strip into the egg and yogurt mixture, ensuring it is completely coated.
Transfer the coated chicken into the breadcrumb and Parmesan mixture, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere.
Place the coated chicken strips onto the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they're spaced apart to allow even cooking.
Lightly spray the chicken goujons with olive oil spray to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauce or salad for a delicious, protein-packed meal.
