Ingredients

    6 (appx 48 oz)Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, cut into strips
    1/2 C (60g )Prairie Gold 100% Whole Wheat flour
    1 C (120 g) Bread Crumbs, Panko
    2 Tbsp Smoked Paprika
    2 1/2 tsp Seasoning Salt
    1/2 tsp Pepper, black
    1 tsp Garlic powder
    1/2 tbsp Chili powder
    1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper (Ground)
    4 tbsp Butter, unsalted

Directions

*Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
*This recipe doesn't include this but I soak my chicken breasts in buttermilk prior to coating. If you are like me and don't keep buttermilk on hand, just add a tablespoon of lemon juice to a cup of milk, stir to combine and let sit 5 minutes before dipping chicken. I place milk in large Ziploc bag, add chicken, and let soak while preparing coating.
*In a large bowl or Ziploc bag, add flour, breadcrumbs, paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, chili powder, and cayenne pepper. Toss or stir well to combine.
*Put butter in large sheet pan an place in oven until melted.
*Add chicken strips to the flour mixture and toss very well to coat. *Place chicken strips, evenly on sheet pan.
*Bake for 10 minutes; flip then bake additional 10 minutes, or until both sides are crispy and chicken is fully cooked.
