Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
- 1 pound chicken breast tenders skinless, boneless
- cooking spray nonstick
- 1 egg large
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large resealable bag, combine panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Seal and shake to mix.
- Crack the egg into a shallow dish and beat lightly. Dip each chicken tender into the egg, then place into the bag with the panko mixture. Seal and shake to coat the chicken evenly.
- Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Spray the top of each tender lightly with cooking spray.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 7 minutes. Flip each tender and continue to bake for another 7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- For an extra crunch, move the oven rack closer to the broiler and broil the tenders for 1-2 minutes. Watch them closely as they can burn easily.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
