This recipe is great, I got it from Healthy Meals in Minutes . The cheese sauce is the perfect topping on it. Good served with salad and sauteed zucchini sticks.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons water
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
for the sauce
2 tablespoons margarine
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk
1/2 cup reduced-fat cheddar cheese, divided
paprika for garnish
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
2. On a sheet of waxed paper, combine the flour and bread crumbs. In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg whites and water.
3. Dip chicken in egg white mixture, then dredge in bread crumb mixture, turning to coat.
4. ln a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook, turning once, until browned, about 10 minutes. Place chicken in a shallow baking dish. Bake until cooked through, about 15 minutes.
5. To prepare sauce, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt margarine. Stir in flour until well combined. Slowly add milk, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in 1/4 cup of cheddar.
6. Place chicken breasts on serving plates. Drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with the remaining cheddar. Garnish with paprika and serve immediately.
