Introduction

Corn cereal crumbs and crushed crackers create a delicious coating. The yogurt tenderizes the chicken. A light spray of olive oil before baking guarantees lightly crispy results.

Ingredients

    1/2 sleeve (about 20) whole-grain salted crackers, pulsed in a food processor until fine (about 1/2 cup)
    2 1/2 cups corn cereal flakes, pulsed in a food processor to fine crumbs (about 1/2 cup)
    2 tablespoons sesame seeds
    3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    2 egg whites
    1 cup lowfat, plain yogurt
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    Olive oil cooking spray
    8 Boneless/skinless chicken breasts

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly spray a baking sheet with olive oil.
Combine the crackers and corn cereal crumbs, sesame seeds, cayenne, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Reserve.

In a large bowl, combine egg whites, yogurt, Dijon mustard, and salt. Add the chicken pieces and coat thoroughly with the yogurt mixture.

One at a time, dip the chicken pieces in the cracker mixture, packing crumbs onto chicken. Arrange the chicken on a baking sheet and spray lightly with olive oil cooking spray.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife.
