Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Cut each piece of chicken into chicken strips about 2/3 of an inch thick. Try to make pieces uniform size so they cook evenly.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, mayonnaise, flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and paprika until it makes a creamy paste.
  4. Place the panko breadcrumbs in a shallow dish or dredging pan.
  5. Dredge each piece of chicken in the mayonnaise mixture and then the panko breadcrumbs, pressing the crumbs into the chicken and tapping off the excess. Place the chicken onto the prepared baking sheet and repeat with remaining chicken strips.
  6. Bake for 7 minutes. Remove and flip each piece of chicken. Return to the oven for another 7 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  7. Remove and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
  8. If you've tried this recipe, come back and let us know how it was in the comments or star ratings.
