Oven Fried Chicken Skewers with Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce


Made this for dinner last night along with the spicy macaroni and cheese. Both were great. And both were Paula Deen of course. :) These are in her Tapas section so they're supposed to made while entertaining, but I just made them for dinner!

What you need:
1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup panko (japanese bread crumbs)
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 chicken breast tenders, cut in half lengthwise (what you see in the picture is just those precut, pretrimmed chicken tenders, not cut in any way, hers are smaller in her magazine)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup butter
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 inch wooden skewers

What you need to do:
Preheat oven to 350. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside. In shallow dish, combine bread crumbs and panko. In another shallow dish, combine flour and salt. Dredge each chicken in flour mixture, then eggs, then bread crumbs. Thread each breaded chicken strip onto a 4 inch wooden skewer (I just used 8 inch bc thats what I already had). Place skewers on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until chicken is done. (I probably cooked mine for like 18 or so minutes and they were still so moist and tender.)

For Sauce: In a small saucepan, heat butter and garlic over medium high until butter melts. Remove from heat and stir in parsley and lemon juice. Serve skewers with sauce.
