Ingredients
olive oil spray
(I used my Misto)
2
tsp
olive oil
6
tbsp
whole wheat or gluten-free Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2
tbsp
plain or gluten-free panko
16
oz
2 large skinless boneless chicken breasts, cut into 24 1-inch chunks
kosher salt and pepper to taste
4
cups
shredded romaine
1
cup
shredded red cabbage
For the Skinny Bang Bang Sauce:
2 1/2
tbsp
light mayonnaise
2
tbsp
scallions
(chopped fine plus more for topping)
1 1/2
tbsp
Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
1
tsp
Sriracha
(or to taste)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray.
Put the olive oil in one bowl and the breadcrumbs and panko in another.
Season chicken with salt and pepper, then put in the bowl with the olive oil and mix well so the olive oil evenly coats all of the chicken.
Put a few chunks of chicken at a time into the breadcrumb mixture to coat, then on the baking sheet.
Lightly spray the top with olive oil spray then bake 8 - 10 minutes. Turn over then cook another 4 - 5 minutes or until cooked though.
Meanwhile combine the sauce in a medium bowl. When the chicken is ready, drizzle it over the top and enjoy!!
To make in the air fryer:
In batches, cook the chicken in a pre-heated air fryer 400F 8 minutes, turning halfway.
