Crispy Chicken Sandwich (Macro Friendly)Updated a year ago

Who doesn't love a delicious crispy chicken sandwich? I don't know about you, but I'd have one every day if I could.

Obviously breaded chicken sandwiches are surely not the healthiest. I think it's fair to see that about fried food in general too.

So instead of waiting for a cheat day to indulge on one of my favorite meals ... I decided to make a macro-friendly version that I know you'll love too!

Don't worry ... it's not deep fried or breaded. This recipe only uses seasonings and rice crisps for the "breading," which helps eliminate a ton of unwanted calories and carbs.

MACRO-FRIENDLY CHICKEN SANDWICH

Servings: 1 (1 Serving = 1 Sandwich)

INGREDIENTS:

• 4oz Chicken breast
• 1/2 Tsp of Smoked Paprika
• 1 Tsp of Salt
• 1 Tsp of Pepper
• Quaker Cheddar Rice Crisps (You'll only need 2 crisps)
• 1/2 Tsp of Onion Powder
• 1 Egg White
• Cooking Oil Spray
• Lettuce
• 1 Tbsp of Light Mayo
• Hamburger Bun

*You'll also need an air fryer for this recipe. If you don't have one, you may also bake your chicken. Just be conscious of how this may affect the cook times and outcome of the recipe.

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the air fryer to 375℉

2. Season the chicken breast with the salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

3. Take 2 cheddar rice crisps and put them in a blender. Season them with the onion powder, then blend.

4. Take the blended rice crisps and put them on a plate.

5. Put 1 egg white on a separate plate.

6. Evenly coat the chicken breast with the egg white, then coat the chicken with the rice crisp blend.

7. Coat the air fryer lightly with cooking oil spray before putting the chicken in.

8. Air fry the chicken for 15 minutes at 375℉.

9. Remove the chicken from the air fryer, and place it on the bun with all toppings to enjoy!
