Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup unseasoned panko breadcrumbs
Cooking oil or spray
2 pounds chicken tenderloins
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp kosher salt (coarse, not fine salt)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepepr
1 large egg
Other: Dipping sauces of your choice

Steps:

  • 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.

PANKO-CRUSTED CHICKEN TENDERS



Panko-Crusted Chicken Tenders image

This recipe is from a New York Times article written by Martha Rose Shulman about how to get kids to eat better by making similar-tasting but healthier versions of their favorite foods. I think it's also a good trick for adults. This recipe uses little oil, so the frying part is a lot cleaner and easier than usual frying.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

Yield 1 pound chicken tenders, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb chicken tenders, cut in half if desired
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten with 2 tablespoons cold water
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons canola oil or 2 tablespoons peanut oil

Steps:

  • Season the chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Put the flour in one shallow pie plate or baking dish, the egg mixture in another, and the panko in another.
  • One at a time, dredge the chicken tenders in flour to coat them lightly but evenly. Tap to release excess flour, then dip in the egg mixture, and finally in the panko, turning and rolling the tenders to coat evenly. This will not be messy if you use tongs, or use one hand for dipping into the dry ingredients and the other for dipping into the egg. Make sure the tenders are evenly coated. Shake off the excess crumbs. Place on a baking sheet, and chill uncovered for 15 minutes or up to a day.
  • Heat a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil. When it is rippling hot, add the breaded tenders. Turn the heat down to medium, and cook for four to five minutes on each side, until golden brown and crisp. Cook in batches, if necessary, so that you don't crowd the pan. Watch carefully; the panko should not blacken, but the chicken tenders should be dark brown on each side. Remove from the heat and serve.
  • Advance preparation: The chicken can be breaded up to a day ahead and kept in the refrigerator.

CRISPY PANKO CHICKEN CUTLETS



Crispy Panko Chicken Cutlets image

This is a fast and easy recipe to make on a busy night. We especially like the crunch of the Panko bread crumbs. (Panko crumbs can be found in the Asian section of the supermarket.)

Provided by TasteTester

Categories     Meat

Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste
3 eggs, lightly beaten with 1/3 cup water
2 cups panko breadcrumbs
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Using a mallet, gently beat the chicken breasts to a uniform thickness. (This prevents the chicken breasts from shrinking and promotes even cooking.).
  • Combine the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper in one bowl. Place the egg and water mixture into another. Put the Panko bread crumbs into a third bowl. Dredge chicken with seasoned flour and pass through egg mixture. Shake off excess egg. For an even crispier crust, dredge with flour again and pass through egg mixture one more time.
  • Now completely cover chicken breasts with Panko crumbs, pressing crumbs down gently if needed.
  • Heat oil in frying pan on medium-high heat. Cook for 4 minutes on each side (or until no longer pink inside) and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken breasts: Fresh chicken breasts will give you the best flavor and texture.
  • Cut the chicken into even strips: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper: This will help to enhance the flavor.
  • Use a light coating of flour: This will help the bread crumbs to adhere to the chicken.
  • Dip the chicken in the egg wash: This will help to seal in the moisture.
  • Coat the chicken in the bread crumbs: Make sure the chicken is evenly coated.
  • Fry the chicken in hot oil: This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Drain the chicken on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce: Some popular options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, and barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Crispy crunchy chicken strips are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for game day parties, potlucks, or a quick and easy weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make crispy crunchy chicken strips that your whole family will love.
