baked chicken tenders

Recipe video above. Beautifully golden, truly crunchy baked chicken tenders! The trick is to toast the breadcrumbs before coating the chicken. See recipe notes for pictured Honey Mustard Dipping sauce.

Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Tenders

panko breadcrumbs ((Note 1))

Oil spray

mayonnaise

tbsp dijon mustard ((or other mustard))

tbsp flour

tsp salt

Black pepper

500 g/1 lb chicken tenderloins ((or breast

Preheat oven to 200C/390F.

Spread panko on a baking tray, spray with oil (spray vertically to avoid blowing the panko off the tray), then bake for 3 to 5 minutes until light golden. Transfer to bowl.

Place a rack on a baking tray (not critical but bakes more evenly).

Place the Batter ingredients in a bowl and whisk with a fork until combined.

Add the chicken into the Batter and toss to coat.

Pick up chicken with tongs and place it into the panko bowl.

Sprinkle surface with breadcrumbs, then press down to adhere. Transfer onto baking tray. Marvel at clean fingers, repeat with remaining chicken.

Spray lightly with oil, sprinkle with a touch of salt (optional). Bake 15 minutes (medium) or up to 20 minutes if gigantic. Any longer = dried out chicken.

Remove from oven and serve immediately, with Sauce of choice (Honey Mustard pictured, see Note 2) and sprinkled with fresh parsley, if desired.

Crumbing (see video &amp; photo in post)

Delicious, crispy baked honey mustard chicken tenders, dredges in honey mustard and coated in crispy panko crumbs.

Crispy Baked Honey Mustard Chicken Tenders Recipe

8-10 boneless, skinless chicken tenders

dijon mustard

honey

panko breadcrumbs

paprika

garlic powder

salt and pepper

Preheat oven to 425° F. Spray a 13&#215;9 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

Combine honey and dijon mustard in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside. Combine panko crumbs and spices in a medium bowl, mix and set aside.

Dredge tenders, 1-2 at a time in the honey mustard sauce and then coat in panko crumbs until fully coated. Place on the baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes, flip, and then for 8 more minutes. Tenders should be golden and fully cooked though.

These Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders are made extra crispy with the use of panko breadcrumbs. They're deliciously baked, not fried.

Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders (Panko)

Cooking oil

chicken tenderloins

oregano

onion powder

tsp kosher salt (coarse, not fine salt)

tsp black pepepr

Other: Dipping sauces of your choice

Preheat oven to 400F, with rack on lower middle position. Line a large baking sheet with foil and generously grease the foil. Add panko breadcrumbs in a single layer on greased foil; spray oil over the top of the panko. Brown panko for 4 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Toasting the panko is the secret to the crunch. Let cool while you continue with recipe.

Meanwhile, increase oven temp to 450F, keeping rack on lower middle position. Use paper towels to thoroughly dry chicken tenderloins. Set chicken aside. In a shallow pan (I use pie pans) combine toasted panko with oregano, onion powder, salt, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir to combine well. In a separate shallow pan, combine the egg with 1 TB water, whisking to incorporate.

Replace the foil on large baking sheet and place a wire rack over it. Generously grease the rack. Dip a chicken tenderloin into the egg mixture, coating well and letting excess drip off. Coat generously with panko mixture. Place on greased wire rack. Repeat with remaining chicken tenderloins, leaving at least an inch of space between each one on the rack.

Spray tops of chicken tenders with oil. Bake 11-13 minutes or until chicken genders are just cooked and the coating is nicely browned (actual bake time depends on thickness of chicken and your oven.) Serve immediately while fresh from the oven, with dipping sauces of your choice. 

These look so tasty, will definitely be giving this recipe a try

I love chicken like that but I never understood how to get it crispy! The mystery is revealed!

Anything that is crispy, I am in!  I love the crispy bite and addicted to it. Glad that there is a video to show me how to do it.

Dinner at your house must be absolutely scrumptious!  I love this recipe, it looks so tasty and so easy!

Wow these look super awesome! I would love to try this for dinner some time!

I love anything that is breaded esp panko! This looks so good!

Oh, this looks very delicious. I love everything that is crispy especially when they are baked. Definitely will try your recipe :)

This really looks mouth watering I am going to try this for sure this weekend. I already taken printout of the recipe

Thank you for sharing the recipe, I hope to give this a go as my kids love baked chicken

Yummy, these chicken tenders look so good and I can taste see how tender they are. It looks like a meal from a restaurant, not from someone you would make at home. Great job!

This looks absolutely satisfying. so crunchy and delicious!!!

Easy, quick and delicious! Never thought to toast panko before coating food.

Good light crunchy taste.  I actually did a lot of chicken strips so it was a bit more work to get them all dipped and coated in the panko.  Still cooked nicely and had a good flavor.  Seasoning is light which is nice, but I can see many people wanting to alot more in spices or heat.  I am sure there are endless possibilities that would taste good!

My husband loves fried chicken but I hate anything oily so this looked like the perfect solution. The end result...He was raving about how good it was while still chewing. I’ve made sooo many online recipes and I’ve never seen him enjoy one as much as this, and I completely agree with him. Thank you for an easy and delicious recipe. 
P.S.- My husband said “make sure you bookmark that recipe”.

This honey mustard sauce is ridiculously easy and transforms the ordinary into extraordinary.

3 Minute Magic Honey Mustard Sauce

Here I&#039;ll show you the secrets to getting extra crispy chicken tenders in the oven. Easy to make and bursting with flavour, these breaded chicken tenders are the ultimate finger food! Makes approx 16 tenders (depending on size) so serving is approx 4 people.

Extra Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders

Flour

Panko Breadcrumbs (see notes)

Butter

Egg, beaten

Milk

Salt

tsp each: Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper

Cayenne Pepper,

Oil Spray

EXTRA Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders

Melt 1 heaped tbsp butter into a frying pan over medium heat and stir in 1.25cups/75g Panko breadcrumbs. Continue frying for 5 or so mins until the breadcrumbs turn light golden. Remove from heat.

Pre heat oven to 200c/390f.

In a small bowl combine 1 tsp paprika and salt, 1/4 tsp onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste).

Line up 3 large bowls. In the first bowl combine 1/3cup/70g flour with 1 tsp of your spice mix. In the second combine 1 beaten egg with 2 tbsp milk. In the third combine breadcrumbs with 1oz/30g parmesan and the rest of your spice mix.

One by one dip your tenders first into the flour, then into the egg and finally into the breadcrumbs, ensuring you fully coat at each stage (especially the last).

Space out (important so they don&#x27;t turn mushy) on a baking tray (preferably elevated on a wire rack if you have one), spray with oil then pop in the oven for 20mins or until golden, crispy and piping hot through the centre. If at all you notice them starting to char at all, turn down the heat.

Place on a cooling rack for a few mins to allow all the steam to escape and crisp up. Serve with your favourite dip!

Crispy Baked Chicken Tenders

These tenders are equally kid- and adult-friendly. The key to the crispy coating is browning the panko (mixed with a little melted butter and parmesan) on its own before using it to coat the chicken. You’ll need a rimmed baking sheet and a wire rack that fits inside.

I’m obsessing over these flavorful, crispy baked chicken tenders, and so are our kids. They’re easy to make, reasonably good for ya, and equally at home as a party appetizer or weeknight dinner.

That&#039;s right, these gluten free and keto chicken tenders are incredibly flavorfuland extra tender! Plus, they&#039;re baked rather than fried (i.e. essentially mess-free!).Oh, and if baking with cups rather than grams is your thing, just click on US Cups for an instant conversion.

(Baked!) Gluten Free & Keto Chicken Tenders

chicken chicken

sour cream

white wine vinegar

poultry seasoning

garlic (ran through a press)

kosher salt (to taste)

almond flour (as needed (or more pork rinds

egg (lightly beaten)

pork

Parmesan cheese (finely grated)

cayenne pepper

our gluten free & keto waffles

sugar free syrup (or maple syrup)

chives (finely chopped)

our marinara sauce

Rinse and pat dry your chicken pieces. Set aside.&nbsp;

In a large bowl suitable for marinating, mix together the sour cream, vinegar, poultry seasoning, garlic, freshly ground black pepper and season to taste. Add in the chicken, cover with cling film and marinate in the fridge for at least two hours (though preferably overnight!).&nbsp;

Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. Line a rimmed baking tray with aluminum foil and place a rack over it. Brush with olive oil or cooking oil of choice.&nbsp;

You will need three bowls for the three coatings. In bowl 1, place your almond flour (or more crushed pork rinds). In bowl 2, whisk your egg with sour cream. And in bowl 3, mix thoroughly together the crushed pork rinds, Parmesan cheese, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, freshly ground black pepper, cayenne and season to taste with salt (will vary quite a bit depending on the saltiness of your pork rinds).&nbsp;

Dip your chicken pieces one at a time in the almond flour, followed by the egg, followed by the pork rinds mixture. Place in the prepared baking tray.&nbsp;

Roast your chicken for 25-30 minutes until fully cooked (i.e. no longer pink and the juices run clear). &nbsp;Serve right away (though they're also surprisingly good cold too!).

BBQ Lime Chicken

c. all-purpose flour

lb. chicken tenders

c. panko bread crumbs

eggs

Kosher salt

barbecue sauce

brown sugar

limes

Ranch dressing, for serving (optional)

Excellent! Everyone loved it! Sauce was delicious. I made mine with beer battered chicken instead because I didnt have any pablo. Adding this to the menu! Thanks!!

The was a hit!  I cut down on the brown sugar. I used 1/2 cup . It was really sweet. Will be making this again but, I would sub out the Panko bread crumbs for regular.  They do not brown.

I make this all the time! My husband and I love it. For our grandsons who like a little heat, I cut the brown sugar in half and add a good hot sauce.

Very nice flavor. Though i didnt like the texture of the crust. I will probably do it a little different next time.

Not a joke about gateway recipe. I  made a smaller batch with scraps. Used sweet heat BBQ sauce from Stubb's which was a really good balance of sweet and hot (good figure). Just want to make sure to leave a review in case anybody was on the edge.

This stuff in AMAZING it's even great the next day right out of the fridge

The sauce merely takes like barbeque sauce. So?

Who says "CRACK" is even referring to drugs?! WOW, Chill tf out! 

Theres a dessert called "Sex on the Beach, but it doesn't actually mean, you're having sex on the beach when you eat it ffs🙄

Made this, amazing.  So good my 3year old grand daughter ate 2 full tenders. Will make this many more times.

The panko on the chicken doesn't get very brown when you bake it and the sauce is horrible.  Way too much lime juice and super sweet. I used a spicy bbq sauce and still it was too sweet. Luckily I only coated a few tenders. I can see why they recommended the ranch because you  needed it to counter the horrible sauce. I do not find this addictive at all.

Crack more like WACK! At best this is an average BBQ sauce with too much lime. Luckily the tenders came out pretty good.

BBQ Lime Chicken Is the Chicken You Won't Be Able to Stop Eating

You only need THREE ingredients, plus a little oil, salt, and pepper, to make perfectly golden, battered, simple oven-fried chicken tenders. Cut them up for salads, sandwiches, or eat them with fries and ketchup!

Three-Ingredient Crispy Oven Fried Chicken Tenders

lb. chicken breast tenders (about 8 tenders)

eggs (beaten)

all-purpose flour

canola oil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Pour oil (1/4 cup) onto rimmed baking sheet and spread around so it coats the center- no need to go all the way to the edges. You want it to be a thick coating.

Season the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Make sure it's evenly coated on the chicken by using your hands to mix it together, or stirring thoroughly with a spoon.

Beat the two eggs well with the 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a shallow bowl.

Put the flour (3/4 cup) in another shallow bowl.

Coat one chicken tender in the egg, then dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then, coat again in the egg and dredge again in the flour.

Add the chicken tender to the prepared baking pan, pressing down to coat the bottom in the oil. Then, flip it over, so the top is covered in oil.

Repeat with remaining chicken tenders.

Bake for 10 minutes at 425 degrees. Flip each chicken tender, being careful to remove each with a spatula thoroughly so you don't lose any batter. Bake for another 10 minutes.

Season lightly with a little bit more salt and pepper right after they come out of the oven.

Serve with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce, like this five-minute avocado sauce.

Baked Firecracker Chicken Tenders - so easy with the most amazing sweet and spicy Asian sauce - plus they're so much healthier than the fried version!
