Crispy, Spicy Baked Chicken

This is a quick, easy dinner with lots of heat! I cheated a little with this dinner and used a Caesar salad kit, added the baked, spicy chicken and a drizzle of extra dressing and dinner was done. Jim had this the next day for lunch as well. He added the chicken in a wrap and really enjoyed it that way too.  This is not a child friendly dish, you need to enjoy hot sauce for this recipe. My family all loves spice so for us it was  great!

INGREDIENTS
Chicken breast strips from three boneless skinless chicken breasts.
1/2 cup of flour
3 eggs
2 Tablespoons of water
1 1/2 cups Panko bread crumbs

SAUCE
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup Frank’s hot sauce
2 Tablespoons water

Caesar salad kit for serving

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Place chicken strips and flour in a Ziploc bag coating all of the chicken with flour. Place Panko bread crumbs in a bowl. Place the eggs and two Tablespoons of water in another bowl mixing the eggs and water together. Dip the flour coated chicken into the egg mixture then into the Panko coating the chicken. Place the chicken on the baking sheet and continue for all of the chicken pieces. When all of the chicken is on the baking sheet, spray the tops of the chicken lightly with non-stick cooking spray and place in the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes until chicken is cooked thoroughly and lightly browned. While the chicken is cooking, add the sauce ingredients into a small saucepan over medium high heat, stir until well combined and slightly reduced. When the chicken is done, remove from oven, toss in sauce and serve over salad adding extra dressing if desired. Serve while chicken is warm.

Enjoy!
