Healthy Pizza Chicken Fingers

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• 1 lb chicken breast, cut into strips
• 1/2 cup pizza sauce
• 1 cup whole wheat bread crumbs
• 1/2 cup ground flax seed
• 1/2 cup oats, blended in blender for 5 seconds
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons oregano

Recipe

• 1 place all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. you can use italian breadcrumbs and omit the seasoning. i eyeballed the measurements, so these are best guesses at the quantities. adjust to suit your taste.
• 2 dip the chicken in the pizza sauce. i added a bit of oil to the pizza sauce, but i think it would still come out okay to just use on its own. it would probably be even better to let the chicken marinate in the pizza sauce for a while. you don't want the sauce too thick.
• 3 then dip in the breading. be sure to pay it and get it to stick well.
• 4 i sprayed a baking pan with cooking spray and placed them on. if you do that, let them sit for a few minutes before trying to remove them from the pan as the bottoms got stuck. next time i'll pro a my cook them on a baking rack so the bottoms don't get too soggy from the sauce.
• 5 bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
• 6 serve with extra pizza sauce for dipping.
