Been on my diet again since Christmas, gained 5lbs over the holidays so not too bad. I found this recipe for "Oven Fried Chicken" I am going to have to try it sounds really good. I will be posting low cal low fat recipes on here and keeping track of what I eat. Today I had a bacon tomato sandwich which was 220 cal total and 3.0 grams of fat., 2 pineapple rings 90 cal, oven fries 220 cals and a Dr Pepper. I know Dr Pepper isn't good for you but I can not give up my pop aint gonna happen. Artificial sweetner's are really bad for you so I will take my regular sugar, in my pop and my coffee.
~Oven Fried Chicken~
Coat chicken peices first in an egg white beaten together with some dijon mustard. Then coat in crumbs; I use a mixture of Nature's Path Mesa Sunrise cereal crushed in the blender, a spoon of flour, season salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, chili powder and garlic powder. I like it heavy on the pepper.
Spray your baking sheet with cooking spray before laying the chicken on it. Then spray the tops of the coated chicken peices.
Bake at 400F until the peices are cooked through, browned and crispy. How long this takes depends on the size of your peices; usually from 25-35 minutes.
You will love this chicken. Anyone you feed it to will love you for it. And, most importantly, you will love me for giving you the idea.
Yay chicken!
Nutritional info: well it totally depends on the size of the thighs...more generous-figured chickens run about 100g per thigh (raw), while the skinny-minnies can be around 50g. So counting for 200g of raw chicken thigh meat, or two gorgeously large thighs per portion, the values are: 298cals, 9g of fat, 43g protein, 7.8g carbs, 1g fibre, 600g sodium.
