INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
2 tsp Honey
1 tsp Cornstarch
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper.
In a shallow bowl, lightly beat the egg white. In another dish, place the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken piece first into the egg white, then coat evenly with breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken on the baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the coating is crispy.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sweet and sour sauce. In a small saucepan, combine pineapple chunks, sliced red bell pepper, rice vinegar, honey, and cornstarch.
Simmer the sauce over medium heat, stirring frequently until it thickens slightly and forms a glossy coating; if needed, mash the pineapple chunks slightly to release juices.
Once the chicken is done, drizzle the warm sweet and sour sauce over it, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping.
Garnish with additional pineapple or bell pepper slices if desired and enjoy your crispy baked sweet and sour chicken.
