Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or olive oil for baking
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Set up a dredging station: in one bowl, place flour; in another, beat the eggs; in a third, combine breadcrumbs with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Take each chicken strip and dip it into the flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dunk it in the egg, and finally coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
- Arrange the coated strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray or drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
- Serve hot, and enjoy these delightful bites!
Notes
Ensure chicken strips are of even thickness for uniform cooking. Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet to prevent steaming.
