For the Skinny Bang Bang Sauce:

- 1 1/2 tbsp Thai Sweet Chili Sauce
- 1 tsp Sriracha , or to taste
Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with olive oil spray.
-
Put the olive oil in one bowl and the breadcrumbs and panko in another.
-
Season chicken with salt and pepper, then put in the bowl with the olive oil and mix well so the olive oil evenly coats all of the chicken.

Put a few chunks of chicken at a time into the breadcrumb mixture to coat, then on the baking sheet.
-
Lightly spray the top with olive oil spray then bake 8 – 10 minutes. Turn over then cook another 4 – 5 minutes or until cooked though.
-
Meanwhile combine the sauce in a medium bowl. When the chicken is ready, drizzle it over the top and enjoy!!
