Description

These crispy oven-baked chicken strips are a family favorite! I've been making them for years, and they always disappear quickly. The secret is the panko bread crumbs, which give them a fantastic crunch without deep-frying. They're perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a fun snack for kids. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce for a complete meal. This recipe is also great for meal prepping – just bake the chicken strips and store them in the fridge for a healthy and delicious lunch option. Enjoy!

Ingredients (9 ingredients)

cooking spray
1 piece large egg, beaten
1.25 cup panko bread crumbs
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp ground paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground black pepper
4 piece skinless, boneless chicken tenders, cut into 1/2-inch strips lengthwise

Preparation (8 steps)

Prepare the oven and baking sheet

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.

Prepare the egg wash

Place 1 large egg, beaten, in a shallow dish. Set aside.

Combine breading ingredients

Place 1 1/4 cups panko bread crumbs, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon ground paprika, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon ground black pepper into a large zip-top freezer bag. Seal the bag and shake well to combine all ingredients.

Coat the chicken strips

Dip 2 chicken strips into the egg wash, then place into the panko mixture in the bag. Shake the bag to coat the chicken completely. Place the coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining chicken strips.

Spray the chicken

Spray each chicken tender with cooking spray twice to ensure even browning.

Bake the chicken strips

Bake the tenders in the preheated oven for 7 minutes. Flip the chicken strips and continue to bake on the opposite side until no longer pink in the centers, about 7 minutes more.

Broil for extra crispiness

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Broil the tenders in the preheated oven for extra crunch, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
