INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Tenders
1 Egg White
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
1 cup Asparagus
1/2 tsp Olive Oil (for asparagus)
1/4 tsp Olive Oil (for coating)
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg white with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In another bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip each chicken tender into the egg white, ensuring it’s evenly coated, then dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs. Drizzle a small amount (1/4 tsp) of olive oil over the coated tenders.
Place the chicken tenders on the baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the asparagus by tossing it with 1/2 tsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the asparagus on another baking sheet.
Roast the asparagus in the oven (it can go in during the last 10-12 minutes of the chicken's baking time) until tender and lightly browned.
Remove both the chicken tenders and asparagus from the oven, plate them together, and serve immediately.
