Yield 6 servings, Blue Cheese Dip Yield: 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray
1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/4 cup lowfat sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 pound chicken tenders
1 egg white
1 tablespoon water
3/4 cup plain panko crumbs
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Assorted crudites, such as radishes, cucumber spears, and carrot sticks, optional

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a small baking sheet generously with nonstick cooking spray.
To make the dip, combine the buttermilk, sour cream and vinegar in a medium bowl. Add the blue cheese and mash with a fork, until blended. Season with salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Season the chicken with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Lightly beat the egg white and water in a medium bowl. Combine the panko and cayenne on a sheet of waxed paper. Dip each tender into the egg whites, shaking off excess, and then roll into the panko to coat. Place the chicken on the baking sheet in 1 layer and generously spray with cooking spray. Bake on the top rack of the oven until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve with the dip and assorted crudites.

BUFFALO CRUDITéS WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP

Buffalo Crudités With Blue Cheese Dip image

Doused in something spicy, crisp crudités can become habit-forming. Inspired by the Buffalo cucumber salad at Parm in New York, this recipe coats the traditional sidekicks to Buffalo chicken - celery, carrots and other raw vegetables - in the garlic-spiked hot sauce that is traditionally doused on wings. The result is finger food at its finest: crunchy, flavor-packed and begging for beer (and blue cheese). Buffalo chicken wings might be written off as a bar fixture, but they're a great example of contrasts: hot and cold, spicy and cooling, crisp and juicy. Like kimchi or chile-flecked melon, these crudités accentuate the play between spicy and fresh.

Ingredients

3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled (about 3/4 cup)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
1 to 3 tablespoons milk or buttermilk, or to taste
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup Louisiana-style hot sauce, such as Frank's
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large garlic clove, grated
4 cups raw chopped vegetables, such as a mix of celery, carrots, cucumbers, radishes and snap peas

Steps:

Make the dip: In a small bowl, stir together the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and lemon juice. Thin with milk until spoonable. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside. (Dip keeps for up to 4 days in the refrigerator; thin as needed with more milk.)
Just before serving, prepare the crudités: In a large bowl, stir together the hot sauce, olive oil and garlic until combined. Toss with vegetables until evenly coated. Serve with the dip.
