Ingredients
For the sauce:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 ½ Tablespoons Chili garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
For the egg mixture:
- 1 egg beaten
- ¾ cup milk
For the breading:
- 1 ½ lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 ½ cup flour
- 1 ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside
- Combine all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl with a spoon. Cover and set aside until ready to use.
- In a small bowl, combine egg and milk and whisk together. Set aside.
- In a large ziploc bag, combine flour, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic, and basil. Zip closed and shake until mixed.
- To begin, bread the chicken by first dropping it into the ziploc bag and shake a few times. Then dip chicken into the egg and put back into the ziploc. Once coated, place each piece of chicken onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
- To cook, bake on pan for 25 minutes. Once done, add half of the sauce to the chicken to coat (while the chicken is still hot). Sprinkle with a little extra dried basil and serve with sauce on the side. ENJOY.
- **For a more golden color, at the end of the cooking time, turn on broiler and place pan a few inches away. Broil about 2 minutes on each side. ENJOY.

Notes
- You CAN fry this if you want (deep or shallow) but sometimes it's just so much easier not to deal with that mess.
