Cook Time15 minutes
Total Time8 hours 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 12 chicken tenders - (or skinless breasts cut into strips - about 1 1/4 lbs)
  • 1 ½ cups dill pickle juice - (enough to cover the chicken)
  • 1 cup whole wheat Panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp dried mustard
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, place chicken tender and pickle juice. Cover and refrigerate for 8-12 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 425, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mist with cooking oil.
  • Combine egg and egg white in a small, shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the Panko and the seasonings.
  • Remove the chicken from the pickle juice, and pat dry with paper towels. One by one, dip each chicken strip in the egg, shake to remove excess, and then dip into the breadcrumb mixture, making sure to coat both sides of the chicken evenly.
  • Place chicken strips on baking sheet, and mist with cooking oil. Place into the oven, and bake for about 10 minutes, then flip and bake for a remaining 5-7 minutes, until the crust is golden, and the chicken is cooked through. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
