Ingredients

• 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 egg whites
• 0.25 cup hot sauce
• 0 olive oil cooking spray
• 0.5 cup low-fat ranch or blue cheese dressing
• 2 green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, mix together the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy.

Step 5

Dip each piece of chicken into the egg whites, allowing the excess to drip off, then coat with the flour mixture.

Step 6

Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray them with olive oil cooking spray.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, turn the pieces over, and continue baking for another 5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8

While the chicken is baking, heat the hot sauce in a small saucepan over low heat until warm.

Step 9

Once the chicken bites are done, remove them from the oven and toss them gently in the warm hot sauce until evenly coated.

Step 10

Serve immediately with low-fat ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping.

Step 11

Garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
