Love Me Chicken Tenders

I got this recipe out of one of my favorite magazines. The whole family likes this one. Serve with herb spring salad or raw spinach salad with balsamic vinegar, olive oil & pepper dressing.

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup corn flakes, crushed
• 1/3 cup pecans, finely chopped
• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch strips
• 2 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Low-fat cooking spray



Instructions:

1) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and then lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.

2) Crush the corn flakes. In a large zip-lock bag, mix together the flakes, pecans, paprika and parsley.

3) Lightly beat the egg whites and dip the chicken pieces into them.

4) Next, place the egg-covered chicken into the bagged corn flake mixture and shake until the chicken is coated.

5) Place the chicken pieces on the baking sheet and cook for 10 to 12 minutes. When the chicken is done the juices will run clear.

6) Finally, mix the honey and mustard together to make the dipping sauce. Serve alongside the chicken.
