Wingless Wings

Wingless WingsIngredients:

1 pound chicken tenders or boneless breast halves, cut into strips or chunks

2 tsp olive oil

3 Tbs bottled wing sauce or hot sauce

1/4 cup bottled reduced-fat ranch or blue cheese salad dressing, or barbecue sauce

Carrot and celery sticks for garnish

 

Directions

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces or if desired, cut into strips and thread onto skewers. Heat olive oil and cook the chicken pieces until well done (or bake in the oven). Remove chicken from the pan and toss with wing sauce. Serve with ranch, blue cheese or barbecue sauce for dipping, and carrot and celery sticks for garnish.

 

Serves 4 as a snack

 

Nutritional note: most wings come deep fried, and are tossed in a mixture of melted butter and wing sauce. This recipe uses only 2 ts olive oil, and omits the melted butter entirely. This saves over 25 grams of fat per serving!
