Korean-Style Sweet-and-Spicy Chicken Rolls

Ingredients:
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 2 tsp. Chinese-style hot mustard
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat panko bread crumbs
  • 2 tbsp. sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
  • 1 1 /2 lbs. chicken tenders
  • 1/4 cup sake
  • 3 tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tsp. honey
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. hot chili oil
  • 8 large green leaf lettuce leaves
Makes 4 Servings (2 rolls per serving)
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray. 
  2. Whisk together egg whites and mustard in a pie plate until frothy. Combine panko, sesame seeds and cilantro on a sheet of wax paper. Dip chicken tenders, one at a time, into egg white mixture; then into panko mixture, pressing to adhere. Place chicken in single layer on baking sheet; lightly spray with nonstick spray. Bake until golden and cooked through, 18-20 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, combine sake, soy sauce, honey, garlic and chili oil in a small bowl. Place lettuce leaves on work surface and top each one with one eighth of chicken. Sprinkle each portion with about 1 tablespoon sauce and roll up lettuce to enclose chicken.
