| 1 |
large egg |
| 1 |
large egg white |
| 1 Tbsp. |
light mayonnaise |
| 1 box (5 ounces) |
plain melba toast |
| 1/4 tsp. |
salt |
| 4 - 4 ounce |
boneless, skinless chicken breasts |
| |
spray oil |
Place the egg, egg white and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Whisk until
smooth.
Place the melba toast and salt in a food processor fitted with a steel
blade. Process until small bread crumbs. Leave some pieces about the size
of currants.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Dredge a chicken breast in the egg mixture coating thoroughly. Dredge
in the bread crumbs patting and turning frequently until well coated.
Place the chicken on a cookie sheet or baking rack and then place in
oven. Bake for 3 minutes and then lightly spray the top of each chicken
breast with the oil. Bake 5 minutes more and then turn. Spray lightly
with the oil again and bake for about 6 more minutes.
This recipe works well with any piece of chicken (with or without the
bone). Use skinless legs, thighs or breasts.
