1. Heat oven to 425. Spray cookie sheet with non-stick spray. Beat egg whites until combined. In a small bowl combine bread crumbs, lemon peel, and garlic powder.
2. Dip chicken in egg whites the into crumbs. Place on cookie sheet. Bake for 25 minutes or until cooked through.
3.While chicken is baking, combine the rest of the ingredients in a small sauce pan on the stove and heat on medium until smooth and warm. Cut chicken and drizzle with sauce.
