Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 cup Low sodium chicken broth
- 8 pieces Whole wheat slider buns
- 0.25 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 spray Olive oil spray
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Instructions
Slice the chicken breast into strips that are about 1 inch wide.
In a medium bowl, combine low-fat Greek yogurt, honey, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken strips to the mixture and marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is marinating, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray lightly with olive oil spray.
Add marinated chicken strips to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned but not cooked through.
Transfer the browned chicken strips to the prepared baking sheet. Pour the low sodium chicken broth over the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken is baking, open the whole wheat slider buns and prepare them on a serving platter.
Once the chicken is done, place one strip of chicken into each bun.
Drizzle a bit of honey over each chicken mini, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat homemade chicken minis!
