Rhonda's Buffalo Chicken Strips

Here's another one from RhondaS. When she can find lettuce, they make these strips into a buffalo chicken salad. Sounds delicious!

Buffalo Chicken Strips

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into finger-sized pieces
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (I use Indian lal mirchi)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup bread crumbs (I just make my own)*
2 egg whites, beaten
1 tablespoon water

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Coat a baking sheet with a nonstick spray.
In a bag, mix together flour, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. On a plate, mix the bread crumbs with the rest of the garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and salt.
Shake the chicken pieces with the seasoned flour. Beat egg whites with 1 tablespoon water, and place egg mixture in a shallow dish or bowl. Dip seasoned chicken in egg mixture, then roll in the seasoned bread crumb mixture. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Bake for about 8 minutes in the preheated oven. Use tongs to turn pieces over. Bake 8 minutes longer, or until chicken juices run clear.

*To make bread crumbs, toast bread. Pound it with anything in a plastic bag or put it in the mixer to crumble it up. You can season it as you like with Italian seasonings, salt, pepper, whatever you want! Two slices makes about 1 cup, depending on the size/thickness of the bread you use.
