Notes

  • To cut chicken breast into tenders,
  • slice against the grain and create strips of equal length and thickness. 
  • Lightly toast the breadcrumbs in a dry pan for the crunchiest coating.
  • Press the chicken when coating with breadcrumbs to help the mixture adhere to the chicken. 
  • Spray the chicken lightly with oil for a golden-brown crust. If you skip this step, the chicken will still be crunchy and flavorful.
  • Always check for doneness with a meat thermometer. Chicken should reach 165F/74C before removing it from the oven.
