Oven-Fried Chicken Tenders
Juicy and tender on the inside and crunchy on the outside. So easy to make and baked in the oven instead of fried.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1½ lbs Boneless Chicken Breasts trimmed and cut into about 3 strips each
- 1 Cup Milk
- 1 Tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 Tsp Onion Powder
- Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 Tbsp Avocado or Olive oil
- ½ Cup Panko Breadcrumbs
- 1 Tbsp Smoked Paprika
- ½ Tbsp Dried Parsley or Oregano
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl whisk milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add in the chicken breast strips and allow it to soak for at least 1 hour, or overnight if time allows.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- Drizzle avocado oil onto the bottom of the pan and spread it all over until there are no dry spots.
- Add panko garlic powder, smoked paprika, parsley/oregano, salt and pepper in a large Ziploc bag.
- Drain the chicken, and add it to the Ziploc bag, shaking well to evenly coat. Place coated chicken strips onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space in between.
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, flipping it halfway.
- Serve immediately with the desired healthy side and dip. Enjoy!
