Erin Oprea's Chicken Tenders (Italian Blend)

By loves2bake

Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 T Italian-blend seasoning
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 3 egg whites
• 2 lbs chicken tenders
• Italian-blend cheese
• Low-sodium spaghetti sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450 F. Mix the almond flour, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and garlic powder in a small bowl and pour the mixture onto a plate. Put the egg whites in a nearby bowl. Dip the chicken tenders in the egg whites, then evenly coat them in the flour mixture and lay out on a cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray. Bake for about 16 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until both sides are crisp. Lightly coat the top of the tenders with the cheese and, if needed, place back in the oven to melt it. Serve with spaghetti sauce for dipping.
