CRISPY OVEN BAKED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• 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.

• Dip chicken tenders into egg mixture and let sit for 5 minutes while preparing crumb mixture. OPTIONAL: Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to an hour (if time allows).*

• Dredge the egg coated chicken in the breadcrumb/parmesan mixture, lightly pressing to evenly coat.

• For the Chicken Tenders: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Coat with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut chicken into strips and pat dry with a paper towel; set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine yogurt, honey, Dijon and salt, blending well. Place chicken into bowl and toss to coat tenders. Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 1 day.
• When ready to bake, place crushed cornflakes in a shallow dish. Toss tenders in cornflake mixture, pressing to coat on all sides. Place on prepared baking sheet and spray tenders with cooking spray.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve with honey mustard (recipe below) if desired.
• For the Honey Mustard: Combine Dijon, mayonnaise and honey in a small bowl. Stir until well blended. For more zesty flavor (my preference), add 1 teaspoon of your favorite hot sauce, or to taste. Serve with chicken tenders, or refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place a cooking rack inside a baking dish and spray both with cooking spray.
• Combine flour, garlic powder, and pepper in a flat dish; stir until evenly combined. Stir mustard, honey, egg substitute, and hot sauce together in a small bowl.
• Combine cornflake crumbs, bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion flakes, garlic powder, pepper, paprika, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and cayenne pepper in another flat dish; stir until ingredients are evenly distributed.
• Dip chicken tenders into the flour mixture until coated evenly, then dip into the egg mixture, shaking off any excess liquid. Drag the chicken through the bread crumb mixture, covering evenly.
• Place chicken on the prepared cooking rack. Spray the chicken with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

HONEY-DIJON CHICKEN TENDERS

Steps:

• Place flour in a shallow dish. Mix honey and Dijon mustard in another shallow dish. Place bread crumbs in a third shallow dish.
• Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Coat with flour then dip into honey-mustard mixture, and finally into the bread crumbs, pressing bread crumbs into chicken.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet. Cook chicken until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Carefully turn tenders over, add remaining 1 tablespoon butter, and cook until chicken is fully cooked and golden brown, an additional 2 to 3 minutes.

EASY CRISPY DIJON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Put the butter in a 9 or 10 inch square baking dish and put it in the oven while it is heating up.
• Don't use a dish that is too big or the butter will end up spreading out too far from the chicken. This whole first part is very important and will help make your chicken end up crispy.
• In one bowl, whisk together the mustard and half and half.
• In another bowl, mix together the cracker crumbs and the cheese.
• When the oven is completely heated up and the butter is sizzling in the baking dish, remove the pan from the oven and set it on a trivet on the counter next to your two mixtures.
• Dip the chicken in the wet mixture; dredge in the crumb mixture.
• This step is important. Put the chicken down in the dish and turn it over right away. The idea is to put it in the butter briefly and turn it over so the butter side is up. It makes the chicken get evenly crispy. I use this technique for all of my oven "frying" because it works so well.
• Bake for approximately 45 minutes or so, depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
• Leave them in there until the coating is browned real nicely. Mine are usually perfect at 45 minutes.
