I love fried chicken, like I LOVE it. But, I only eat it about once a year, because it is awful for you. So I decided to try my hand at a healthier version. It turned out pretty darn good.
Here's what you will need
3 chicken breasts with bones and skin removed.
1 cup bread crumbs
1 egg
1/4 cup fat free milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/2 tablespoon of onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
olive oil.
Preheat your oven to 350. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside.  Heat olive oil in skillet.
Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. In separate bowl mix milk and egg, whisk well. Slice the chicken breast  lengthwise so that it's thin. Dip chicken into milk/egg mixture. Then dredge in breadcrumbs. Place chicken in single layer in the skillet, cook 3-5 min each side. Really just long enough to brown the breading so it doesn't fall off. Once browned, place on lined baking sheet, and bake for about 15 min, until done.  Set on a napkin to drain any excess oil. Enjoy!
