15 Minute Spicy Chicken Strips

So I really wanted to share with you all my quick, easy recipe for chicken strips. 

In college Travis was  obsessed with always excited for chicken strip night at the cafeteria. So I was out of ideas for dinner the other week and had some chicken tenders in the fridge that I hadn't used up yet and I decided to try out a homemade spicy chicken strip recipe.

The verdict? Delicious - and certainly not as greasy as chicken strips from a restaurant/freezer bag!

15 Minute Spicy Chicken Strips

Ingredients:

 1 c. Italian bread crumbs
1 tsp. Chipotle Chile Pepper {This is the key ingredient - it has a sweet heat, but add less if you are sensitive to spice}
1 tsp dried red pepper
ground pepper to taste
Egg whites {enough to coat your chicken tenders}
Chicken tenders

Time: about 15-20 minutes from fridge to plate

Steps:
1. Mix together bread crumbs and spices.

 2. Dip chicken tenders in a small bowl of egg whites {or whole eggs, beaten}, place in hot skillet with olive oil.

3. Cook chicken through, flipping when chicken browns on each side {about 5 minutes per side}.
Enjoy!
