Baked Okra Bites
Ingredients
You don't need to deep fry to get a crispy tender treat. These breaded beauties are coated with flavor and cooked at a high heat in the oven to create the Maillard reaction that's responsible for the good golden crunch that complements the softness of okra so wonderfully.
Vegetable oil spray
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt-free Cajun seasoning
8 oz. okra, stems removed and sliced
1 large egg, beaten
