⅛ teaspoon Pepper
¼ cup Hot water
1 large Egg white

BUTTER BUDS: 1 packet Butter Buds Mix contains 8 teaspoons. Two tablespoons Butter Buds Sprinkles may be substituted. Use is divided equally between the crumbs and the egg-wash.

One pound of chicken makes about 20 strips.

1. In a food processor combine the cornflakes, half the butter buds and the garlic-herb seasoning blend. Process until the cornflakes are fine crumbs.

Pour the crumbs into a shallow dish.

2. Combine the remaining butter buds with hot water to dissolve. Whisk in the egg white with a fork until well blended and pour into another shallow dish.

3. Heat oven to 400F (200C) degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray. Dip the chicken strips into the egg white mixture, then into the crumb mixture. Place on the prepared cookie sheet.

4. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, turning once, until golden and cooked through.

Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as honey-mustard.
