INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 Whole Wheat Bun
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 Egg
1 Reduced-Fat Cheese Slice
2 Romaine Lettuce Leaves
2 Tomato Slices
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pound the chicken breast slightly for even thickness, then season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In another shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Dip the chicken breast first in the egg, allowing excess to drip off, then coat evenly in the panko breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until the chicken is crispy and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
While the chicken bakes, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the oven or on a skillet.
Assemble the sandwich by layering romaine lettuce and tomato slices on the bottom bun, adding the crispy chicken, then topping with a slice of reduced-fat cheese. Optionally, return the assembled sandwich to the oven for 1-2 minutes to slightly melt the cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, crispy oven-baked chicken sandwich.
