Share:
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds chicken tenderloins or whole chicken breasts*
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1 cup cornflake crumbs or finely crushed cornflakes or crackers
- 1 cup Panko bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt divided
- ½ teaspoon black pepper divided
- 2 large eggs beaten with 2 tablespoons water
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- If using whole breasts, cut them into ¾-inch strips. Season the strips or tenderloins with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
- In a bowl, combine flour and seasoned salt. In a second bowl, whisk eggs with water.
- In a third shallow dish, combine cornflake crumbs, bread crumbs, paprika, garlic powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt & pepper (more to taste).
- Dip the chicken in flour, shaking of any excess, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally into the breadcrumb mixture gently pressing to adhere.
- Place the chicken on the prepared pan and generously spray with cooking spray or oil.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes or until cooked through.
Notes
- If using whole chicken breasts, freeze for 15-20 minutes before cutting.
- No Cornflakes? No Problem! If you do not have cornflake crumbs, you can use cracker crumbs or extra panko.
- Convection Oven: Reduce time to 15-18 minutes if using convection. Ensure the chicken reaches 165°F.
- Air Fryer Directions: Place chicken tenders in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 350°F for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through. The second batch may need a minute or two less as the air fryer will be preheated.
