Instead of  high calorie fried nuggets, you can coat chicken tenders in a seasoned almond and whole-wheat flour crust and then oven-fry them for a perfection diet choice.<\/strong> With half the fat of standard breaded chicken tenders, you can easily incorporate this tasty meal into your weight loss plan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1\/2 cup<\/strong> sliced almonds
\n\t1\/4 cup<\/strong> whole-wheat flour
\n\t1 1\/2 teaspoons<\/strong> paprika
\n\t1\/2 teaspoon<\/strong> garlic powder
\n\t1\/2 teaspoon<\/strong> dry mustard
\n\t1\/4 teaspoon<\/strong> salt
\n\t1\/8 teaspoon<\/strong> freshly ground pepper
\n\t1 1\/2 teaspoons<\/strong> extra-virgin olive oil
\n\t4 <\/strong>large egg whites
\n\t1 pound<\/strong> chicken tenders<\/p>\n

Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 1 <\/strong>
\n\tPreheat oven to 475°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and brush on a little olive oil.<\/p>\n

Step 2 <\/strong>
\n\tPlace almonds, flour, paprika, garlic powder, dry mustard, salt and pepper in a food processor; process until the almonds are finely chopped and the paprika is mixed throughout, about 1 minute. With the motor running, drizzle in oil; process until combined. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish.<\/p>\n

Step 3 <\/strong>
\n\tWhisk egg whites in a second shallow dish. Add chicken tenders and turn to coat. Transfer each tender to the almond mixture; turn to coat evenly. (Discard any remaining egg white and almond mixture.) Place the tenders on the foiled pan.<\/p>\n

Step 4 <\/strong>
\n\tBake the chicken fingers until golden brown, crispy and no longer pink in the center, 20 to 25 minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
