INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1 tbsp Light Soy Sauce
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1 tsp Cornstarch
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg white. In another bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Dip the chicken pieces first in the egg white, then coat thoroughly in the panko breadcrumbs.
Arrange the breaded chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and cooked through.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine pineapple chunks, light soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, and cornstarch. Stir over medium heat until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
Once the chicken is done, toss the crispy pieces in the sweet and sour sauce until fully coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy this healthier, baked version of a classic favorite.
