Instructions

Creating Homemade Green Bean and Chicken Crunchies can be simple if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: In a bowl, combine diced chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well coated.
3. Cook Green Beans: In a pot of boiling water, add the green beans for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still crisp. Drain and set aside.
4. Prepare Egg Mixture: In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and olive oil until well combined.
5. Mix Breadcrumbs and Cheese: In a separate dish, mix the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese until evenly distributed.
6. Combine Ingredients: Add the blanched green beans to the bowl with the seasoned chicken and mix well.
7. Coat the Mixture: Dip spoonfuls of the chicken and green bean mixture into the egg wash first, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
8. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated crunchies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them apart for even cooking.
9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through, flipping halfway for even crispiness.
10. Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.

Following these steps will guide you to creating incredible crunchies that everyone will love.
