Ingredients

• 500 grams Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 120 ml Plain non-fat yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 100 grams Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, then lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1 inch in size.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, combine the plain non-fat yogurt, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

Step 4

Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and ensure each piece is well-coated. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

Step 5

In another bowl, mix the whole wheat flour with the baking powder. This will be your dry coating mix.

Step 6

Remove each piece of chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and then roll it in the flour mixture to coat thoroughly.

Step 7

Place the coated chicken bites onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spread out and not overlapping.

Step 8

Lightly spray the top of the chicken with non-stick cooking spray to help them brown evenly.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and the chicken is cooked through. You can check the doneness by ensuring the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the chicken bites rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 11

Enjoy your low-fat batter chicken bites with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad.
