INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (raw)
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Pineapple Juice
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
1 tbsp Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper (sliced)
1/4 cup Yellow Onion (sliced)
1/3 cup Pineapple Chunks
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces ensuring even sizes for uniform cooking.
In a bowl, whisk together the egg white. In another shallow dish, add the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken piece first into the egg white, then coat evenly with the panko breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until chicken is fully cooked and the coating is crispy and golden.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the sweet and sour sauce by combining pineapple juice, rice vinegar, and low-sodium soy sauce in a small saucepan. Warm over low heat for 3-4 minutes, allowing flavors to blend.
In a separate skillet, lightly sauté the red bell pepper and yellow onion until they begin to soften, about 2-3 minutes. Add the pineapple chunks at the end just to warm them through.
Once the chicken is ready, toss the crispy pieces with the sauce and gently fold in the sautéed vegetables and pineapple.
Serve immediately and enjoy the harmonious balance of tangy sweetness with a satisfying crispy texture.
