Ingredients
For the Chicken Tenders:
- 1 ½ pounds chicken tenders
- ½ cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 4 cups cornflakes
- 1 tablespoon chopped parsley
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- cooking spray
For the Special Sauce:
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon minced onion
- 1 tablespoon sweet relish
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉.
- Add milk and eggs to a shallow dish, whisk to combine.
- Add cornflakes, parsley, paprika, salt and pepper to a food processor, process until the cornflakes are the texture of breadcrumbs. Add to a second shallow dish.
- Working with one chicken tender at a time, place a chicken tender in the wet batter, flipping from side to side to coat. Then place it into the cornflake mixture, coating both sides. Place on a baking tray, lined with parchment paper.
- Repeat with the remaining chicken tenders.
- Spray the tops of the chicken with cooking spray to encourage a golden-brown crust. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
- While the chicken is baking, stir together the special sauce ingredients.
- Serve baked chicken tenders with special sauce and an extra garnish of parsley.
Notes
- Storage: Store baked chicken tenders in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days, or freeze for 3 months.

- For less mess, use tongs to dredge chicken in breadcrumbs.
- For an extra spicy kick, add some cayenne pepper to the breadcrumb mixture.
