This delicious and healthy chicken in a crispy breading cooks quickly and doesn't contain excess fat. A mixture of crushed saltine crackers, cornflakes, and sesame seeds creates the perfect crust. Take various skinless, boneless chicken pieces and coat them with a mixture of egg whites and yogurt. The yogurt will tenderize the chicken during baking, ensuring even the white meat remains juicy, and it will also help the breading mixture adhere better. Roll the pieces in breadcrumbs and spray them with a little cooking spray to ensure a crispy crust. Bake the chicken in the oven and enjoy dipping your delicious pieces in your favorite sauce, or serve with any side dishes and vegetables as a main course.
