Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breast
• 0.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup Cornflakes
• 2 pieces Egg whites
• 0.5 cup Low-fat buttermilk
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt
• 2 cups Whole wheat biscuit mix
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 container Cooking spray
• 4 slices Low-fat cheddar cheese

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray.

Step 2

Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness using a meat mallet. Cut each breast in half to create four pieces.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Whisk the egg whites in a separate bowl.

Step 5

Crush the cornflakes in a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.

Step 6

Dip each chicken piece first in the flour mixture, then the egg whites, and finally coat with crushed cornflakes. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

Bake the chicken pieces in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the coating is crispy.

Step 8

While the chicken is baking, prepare the biscuits by combining the whole wheat biscuit mix, low-fat buttermilk, baking powder, baking soda, low-fat Greek yogurt, and honey in a mixing bowl. Stir until just combined.

Step 9

Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough onto another baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 10

To assemble the sandwiches, slice the biscuits in half. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on the bottom half of each biscuit, add a piece of chicken, and top with the remaining biscuit half.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy your low-fat chicken biscuit sandwiches!
