Ingredients
-
1/3 cup whole-wheat bread crumbs
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces boneless, skinless chicken, cut into bite-size chunks
2 tablespoons hot sauce
Tips
Serve with more hot sauce, if desired, or blue cheese dressing. (Nutrition info not included!)
Don't forget the celery!
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine the bread crumbs, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a shallow dish.
Place the chicken and hot sauce in another shallow dish, stirring well to evenly coat the chicken.
Place the chicken, one piece at a time, in the breadcrumbs.
Use one hand for the wet ingredients and one for the dry ingredients so that the bread crumbs will not clump.
Place the chicken on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Bake for 10 minutes, then turn over the chicken and bake for an additional 7-8 minutes or until fully cooked.

If you had a problem with the oven temp, it might be your oven needs adjusting. Hang an Oven Temperature Gauge from a center rack to check. To adjust, simply pull off knob. There will be a small set screw. Turn left to raise oven temp and right to lower it. Over time, all ovens need adjusting. - 2/14/11

Cheg Meg did it again, they were spicy! My husband was wary when I was making them, then he couldn't get enough! They were a little spicy for me so I may tone it down next time but they were still amazing. Make sure not to spray nonstick spray, it will make them soggy and cook at a higher temp - 7/1/10

Glad to see that the WOWS far outweigh the OK's and nays -- I am totally a boneless "wing" girl and these are da bomb! I did adjust to the higher temp as recommended and I used whole wheat panko because that is what we use. YUMMY. Try them with Bolthouse Farms Blue Cheese which is low in cal/fat! - 2/8/11

I somewhat agree with those who are upset about the recipe being copied from the original author, ANGIERSJ. However I did notice when I submitted a recipe recently that I was warned that by submitting it I was giving all ownership and rights to Sparkpeople.com. That said, this recipe is delicious! - 10/22/11

Why wasn't the person who came up with the recipe acknowledged in this article? I have considered submitting a recipe myself but if this could happen to my recipe with Chef Meg posting it as a approved by her then I say why bother. Let Chef Meg come up with her own and then she can have the credit!! - 6/5/11

Made this for dinner tonight. I halved the cayenne pepper but still too spicy. I also cooked them on 400F for about 20 minutes... not crispy. Next time i would cook them on a higher temp and i'm going to use BBQ sauce instead of tobasco sauce & i'm going to use only a 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. - 2/10/11
