I make chicken in my crock pot all the time, but rarely in the oven. Since it is just myself and my toddler for dinner tonight, I decided to make something kid friendly and simple. I was also in the mood for oven fries but wanted something healthier so I used sweet potatoes instead. My husband hates them so I never have them and since he wasn't home I figured why not? The chicken was so crispy and flavorful and the sweet potato wedges were a big hit with the little guy!
Ranch Chicken Tenders
WW PP=2 per Tender
Cal 101, Fat 2.4, Carbs 9.8g, Fiber 1g, Protein 9.7g
Ingredients
12 oz chicken tenders
1 pkg shake n bake extra crispy
1/2 packet dry ranch seasoning mix
1/4 cup ranch dressing (I used lite)
In a small bowl combine the shake n bake and ranch seasoning mix. Set aside. Add you ranch dressing to another bowl and set aside. Take your chicken tenders and dip in the ranch dressing and then into the dry seasonings. Coat well. Put the tenders into a lightly greased baking dish and cook for 25-30 minutes at 375 or until juices run clear. Serve with additional ranch or any other dipping sauces of you choice. Enjoy!
Sweet Potato Wedges

2 large sweet potatoes
1/8 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp paprika

Cut potatoes into wedges and toss in extra virgin olive oil. Add you paprika and salt. Bake at 450 for 30 minutes turning once halfway through. Enjoy!

I love that these are baked and sweet potato fries are popular with my kiddos too!
