I was in search of some new clean eating groups on Facebook and came across this, "Clean Eating Christmas" Group. The very first recipe I read was this one. I felt like it was speaking right to me! Just the day before I was sitting at the table talking to my husband about how I really wanted to focus on transitioning our kids over to an even cleaner lifestyle. So When the chicken fingers and fries recipe came up I was in heaven!! I must say that everyone LOVED this recipe! My kids each ate 2 full chicken tenders and my husband scarfed up the left overs for lunch the next day before I even had a chance! So definitely put this on your list of meals to make!!!
Ingredients:
Ezekiel Bread
1/4 c parmesan cheese
Garlic powder
Onion Powder
Italian Seasoning
Egg whites
Sweet potatoes
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Low Sodium Season Salt
Directions:
Toast whole grain bread, break up into pieces and put in the food processor. Add 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and any other spices that you like. Process until fine.
Cut up chicken breast into strips. Beat 4 egg whites, dip chicken in egg and then bread mixture.
Bake on 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until cooked through.
For the home made fries I cut up sweet potatoes length wise into steak fry strips. Then, put in a large ziplok bag. Add Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Season Salt. Shake with bag closed then lay on a baking sheet and cook until crispy or for 25 minutes.
I wish I would of taken a picture because they were so perfect! But I forgot so here is the recipe and I promise to add in a picture next time I make them!!!
