Have you ever cooked with Panko bread crumbs? If not, you might want to consider it. Panko is different in that they are a crunchy type of bread crumbs. I have a simple go to recipe for the kids for baked chicken strips that use Panko bread crumbs. My kids gobble them up and like them just as much as chicken nuggets. My little one is at the age where she will not eat just plain chicken, so "tricking" her into eating healthy is always an adventure. Everytime I use the panko bread crumbs, there is NO trick and she cleans her plate!
Well, Progresso is adding Lemon Pepper bread crumbs to their line up now. Hmmm, I will have to give these a try next time I make chicken strips. It will be nice to have an added flavor to the recipe.
Here is the recipe for those interested:
Preheat oven to 425F, cover cookie sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray
In three shallow bowls mix the following
1. 1/4 cup flour
2. 1 egg with 1 tablespoon water
3. 1 cup Panko bread crumbs and 1/2 grated Parmesan cheese
Take ~ 1 1/4 lb chicken breast tenders and dip in bowls 1-3.
*optional drizzle with 2 tablespoons melted butter(I don't do this step and think they still taste delicious)
Bake 15 to 20 minutes turning once, until chicken is no longer pink in center
Watch your kiddos gobble them up!

I'm not big into fish, I would make some lemon pepper chicken strips. Especially since my children would have to be eating it too.
My sister usually uses this on fish and it tastes wonderful. I'd love to give this a try myself. esgblog@gmail.com

I have never tried Panko bread crumbs but have been wanting to try them. I like to dip chicken tenderloins in mayo or ranch dressing (i know, kind of weird) then roll in bread crumbs and bake at 400 for 25 minutes. But they turn out really moist and my kids love it. I would love to try it with Panko bread crumbs.
did anyone win?
