Wheat Thin Chicken

Ingredients:

• 1 box of sun-dried tomato flavored Wheat Thins ($2.98)
• 4 fresh chicken breasts, pat dry ($4.76)
• 1/4 cup of egg beaters (already had at home; leftover from egg casserole recipe)
• pinch of salt
• pinch of pepper
• pinch of paprika

Directions:

Place chicken breasts in a large ziplock storage bag (make sure all the air is let out). With a rolling pin or pounder (meat tenderizer), pound out chicken breast to a 1/2 inch thickness. In another large ziplock storage bag, crush Wheat Thins with a rolling pin or a pounder until they are the consistency of bread crumbs. Place egg beaters in a large bowl and the crushed wheat thins in a separate large bowl. Dip chicken breasts one at a time into the bowl with egg beaters, then into bowl with Wheat Thins (make sure both sides are coated), and place them on a greased cookie sheet. Do the same for the remaining chicken breasts. Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 min. Slice through the middle of the largest chicken breast to check if they are done (no longer pink = done).

Total Price:

$7.74 (makes approximately 2-3 meals for two people)
