Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray.
Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips, approximately 1/2 inch wide, resembling the shape of fries.
In a bowl, combine the plain nonfat Greek yogurt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Dip each chicken strip into the yogurt mixture, ensuring it is well-coated.
In a separate shallow bowl, place the panko breadcrumbs.
Take each yogurt-coated chicken strip and roll it in the panko breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well.
Arrange the breaded chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching.
Lightly spray the tops of the chicken with cooking spray to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken fries are golden brown and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your low-fat crispy chicken fries with your favorite dipping sauce!
