1

Prep the chicken

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Get your chicken tenders and lightly season them with salt and pepper for some extra flavor.

Prepare the breading station

In one bowl, whisk together 2 eggs. In another bowl, mix 1 cup of breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and any additional seasonings you desire, like paprika or garlic powder.

Coat the chicken with breading

Dip each chicken tender into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, roll them in the breadcrumb mixture until they're fully coated. Press the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to ensure a crispy exterior.

Place on the silicone baking sheet

Bake those beauties

Pop the tray into the preheated oven and let the chicken tenders bake for approximately 15-20 minutes, or until they're golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through to ensure even browning.

Serve and enjoy

Once fully cooked, remove the chicken tenders from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy the crispy, juicy goodness!
