INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 large Egg White
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Panko Breadcrumbs (measured as 0.25 cup)
1/2 cup Pineapple Chunks
1/4 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
1 tbsp Rice Vinegar
1 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Honey
1 tsp Cornstarch
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized strips or pieces.
In a shallow bowl, whisk the egg white. In another bowl, spread out the whole wheat panko breadcrumbs.
Dip each piece of chicken into the egg white, then coat thoroughly in the panko breadcrumbs.
Place the breaded chicken pieces on the prepared baking sheet and lightly drizzle with olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden and crispy.
While the chicken bakes, prepare the sweet and sour sauce by combining pineapple chunks, diced red bell pepper, rice vinegar, low sodium soy sauce, honey, and cornstarch in a small saucepan.
Simmer the sauce over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until it thickens slightly.
Remove the chicken from the oven and drizzle the warm sweet and sour sauce over the crispy pieces.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
