These baked chicken tenders have a deliciously crispy panko bread crumb coating for that extra crunch factor without the guilt of frying! You can marinate the tenders in light buttermilk in the refrigerator for 1 hour instead of dipping in the beaten egg.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray:
  • egg: 1 piece (beaten)
  • ¼ cups panko bread crumbs: 1 piece
  • garlic powder: 2 tsp
  • onion powder: 1 tsp
  • ground paprika: 1 tsp
  • kosher salt: 1 tsp
  • ground black pepper: 1 tsp
  • skinless, boneless chicken tenders, cut into 1/2-inch strips lengthwise: 4 piece
