Preparation Steps

• Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
• Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels and set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
• In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
• In a third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.
• Dredge each chicken tender in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess. Then dip into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Finally, coat thoroughly in the panko-Parmesan mixture.
• Place the coated tenders on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray for crispiness.
• Bake for 18–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
• Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces.
