Kids Easy Baked Chicken

 

I decided to start making some healthier recipes for kids, and having 2 nieces whom I adore I wanted to teach my sister that the processed stuff may be quick but is NOT very healthy and even she can get the kids to like this meal. Well sure enough it is not only the most requested by the kids she loves them as well. So let's get started.

Ingredients

1 package of chicken tender

1 cup panko breading (finely broken)

1/2 cup 4C whole wheat bread crumbs

1 egg + 1 egg white

Sprinkle of Parmesan cheese

Sprinkle of Italian seasoning

Olive oil spray

Preheat the oven to 350. In a seal able bag place your panko, breadcrumbs, Parmesan,  and seasoning making sure it is all blended together. Take your eggs and whisk them in a bowl, take your chicken and coat them all with egg, then place them into the bag for breading, seal the bag and shake it so all the chicken strips are coated. Then take a baking tray and spray with oil, remove chicken and place onto the try, once they are there give the chicken one final oil spray and back in the oven for about 25 minutes. Remove, cool, and enjoy!


Tips
See how easy? This can be made with tofu, shrimps, we took the chicken and dunked them in a marinara sauce, or you can use a low salt ketchup or mustard. Either way this is a great way to get your kids to eat better and it took no more than 30 minutes. Serve with a salad or your kids favorite veggie.
