Como fazer Crunchy Pecan Coated Chicken Strips
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine 1 cup crushed cereal (such as corn flakes) and ½ cup chopped pecans in a large zip-top bag.
- Seal the bag, pressing out excess air.
- Using a rolling pin or heavy can, crush the cereal and pecans into smaller pieces. Aim for a mix of fine crumbs and small pecan pieces.
- Add 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper to the bag.
- Seal the bag and shake well to combine.
- Crack 1 large egg into a medium bowl.
- Beat the egg with a fork until the yolk and white are fully combined.
- Cut 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts into ½-inch wide strips, cutting across the short direction of each breast.
- Add the chicken strips to the egg, stirring gently to coat.
- Immediately wash your hands and cutting board thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
- Remove the chicken strips from the egg, allowing excess egg to drip off. Use a fork to help lift the strips.
- Add the chicken strips to the bag with the pecan mixture.
- Seal the bag and gently shake to coat the chicken evenly. Press the pecan mixture into the chicken.
- Pour the coated chicken strips onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, using a fork to separate any touching strips.
- Wash your hands again if you touched the raw chicken.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crumbs are golden brown and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
- To check for doneness, remove one strip, cut it in half, and ensure the inside is completely white and not pink.
- Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Delicious on its own or added to a Caesar salad!
