Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Goujons Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Cut the chicken breast into finger-width strips.

Step 2

In one bowl, mix the flour, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs. If using, mix in the grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 4

First, dip each strip of chicken in the flour mixture.

Step 5

Then, dip in the beaten egg. Finally, roll in the breadcrumb mixture.

Step 6

Place the breaded chicken strips onto the lined baking tray. Drizzle with a little olive oil for extra crispness.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until golden and fully cooked through.

Step 8

Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F).

Step 9

Arrange the chicken: Place the breaded chicken strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they do not overlap.

Step 10

Air fry for about 12 minutes, or until the goujons are golden and crispy. No need to turn them during cooking.
