Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
- 0.5 cup Plain unsweetened Greek yogurt
- 1 cup Whole wheat breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes to create small bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are roughly the same size to cook evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the low-sodium chicken broth and Greek yogurt until well combined. This mixture will help the breadcrumbs adhere to the chicken.
In a shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, and black pepper, stirring until evenly mixed.
Dip each piece of chicken into the yogurt mixture, shaking off any excess, then coat it with the seasoned breadcrumbs. Pat the breadcrumbs gently onto the chicken to ensure they stick.
Place the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet, giving them space to crisp up.
Lightly spray the tops of the chicken mini bites with olive oil spray to encourage browning and crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked with no pink in the centers and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite low-sodium dipping sauce.
