Fee-Fi-Faux-Fry...
Sometimes you just want to pick up your food and eat it like a caveman. Grab one of these guilt-free KFC taste-alikes, and gnaw away! Enjoy

Ingredients:
6 raw chicken drumsticks, skin removed
1/2 tsp. salt, divided
1/2 cup Fiber One bran cereal (original)
1 1/4 tsp. black pepper
3/4 tsp. garlic powder
3/4 tsp. onion powder
3/4 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. chili powder
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
Optional: additional seasonings, to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside. Season chicken with 1/4 tsp. salt and set aside.

Using a blender or food processor, grind Fiber One cereal to a breadcrumb-like consistency. Transfer crumbs to a large sealable plastic bag. Add remaining 1/4 tsp. salt and all other seasonings. Seal bag and shake to mix. Open bag and, if you like, season crumbs to taste with additional seasonings. Set aside.

Place egg substitute in a wide bowl. Two at a time, coat drumsticks in egg substitute, gently shake to remove excess liquid and place in the bag with the crumbs. Seal and shake to coat. Transfer crumb-coated drumsticks to the baking sheet and repeat with remaining drumsticks.

Bake in the oven for 20 minutes and then carefully flip. Bake for another 15 - 20 minutes, until crispy and cooked through. Enjoy!

    Thanks so much! I really don't care for chicken (unless it's the bad for you KFC kind) and I have been trying to find healthy chicken recipes that I would actually like. I'm definitely going to try this one out!!!

    Sounds really great but, I think that, I will substitute Chicken breast tenders for the legs. Thanks for the recipe. I have a lot of Hungry girl recipes on my computer if, anyone is interested. Just send me a messy.:smile:

    Sounds yummy, but I too, will switch to chicken tenders, not a drumstick fan. I love Hungry girl. She is a kick!
