INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast (approx. 170g)
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (approx. 15g)
1 large Egg White (approx. 33g)
1 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce (16g)
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks, drained (82g)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper (75g)
1 tsp Rice Vinegar (5g)
1 tsp Honey (7g)
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Ginger Powder
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips or chunks.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg white and a splash of soy sauce.
In another bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with garlic powder and ginger powder.
Dip each chicken piece first into the egg white mixture, then coat thoroughly with the seasoned panko breadcrumbs.
Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced out for even baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the sweet and sour sauce by mixing together the remaining soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, pineapple chunks, and red bell pepper in a small saucepan. Heat gently for 3-4 minutes just to meld the flavors; do not bring to a vigorous boil.
Once the chicken is done, remove from the oven and toss lightly with the warm sweet and sour sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy the crisp texture paired with the tangy, slightly sweet sauce.
