1 large egg
1 egg white
1 or 2 dashes of hot sauce
1 cup cornmeal
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp thyme
1 lb chicken breast, bones and skin removed, cut into strips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Put a cooking rack on a shallow baking sheet.
Get out 2 shallow dishes. In one, whisk together the egg, egg white, and hot sauce. In the other, mix together the cornmeal, garlic powder, black pepper, and thyme.
Coat your chicken pieces first by dipping into the egg mixture, then in the cornmeal mixture, shaking to remove excess. Lay each piece as it's coated onto the rack covering the baking sheet.
When all the chicken is coated and on the rack, put in the preheated oven and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes or until the chicken pieces are slightly browned and the chicken is thoroughly cooked. You will want to turn the chicken pieces once during this cooking time.
Remove and let cool slightly on rack before serving.
Serve with your favorite healthy homemade dipping sauces if you wish.
Serves 2 but can easily be doubled or tripled for larger gatherings.
