PARMESAN-PANKO CHICKEN TENDERS
The Panko (Japanese breadcrumbs) used to coat the chicken in this recipe makes for an appealingly crunchy texture. You can find panko in many supermarkets and specialty stores. Opt for whole wheat panko if you can get it.

Flavorful and easy to make, these delicious delicacies are sure to be a hit with even picky eaters. Great as a family meal with a salad and/or sliced apples or as an appetizer with dipping sauces (we use ranch or light mustard)-either way, they'll be asking for more. I tried these at a holiday party, and came up with my own version. Simple, but they don't look or taste it.

PARMESAN & PANKO CRUSTED CHICKEN
This recipe was adapted from the recipe I found on the back of a Best Food Mayonaise jar. The mayonaise helps provide a moist piece of chicken and helps adhere the panko and cheese to the chicken. Feel free to add more/less of italian seasoning/garlic powder to taste. We are huge fans of garlic so I up the quantity used for our household.

CRUNCHY LEMON-GARLIC-PARMESAN CHICKEN TENDERS
These chicken tenders are fast to make and live up to the name of crunchy chicken tenders. They look larger, because they're pounded out. Do not skip the step of pounding the tenders as it helps to cook the tenders quickly! Also make sure you are using a block of Parmesan and not the green bottle stuff. Serve with your favorite sauce (mine is ranch). Enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from drying out.
- Make sure the chicken is completely coated in the egg mixture before dredging it in the panko breadcrumbs. This will help the breadcrumbs adhere to the chicken and create a crispy crust.
- Use a shallow dish for dredging the chicken in the panko breadcrumbs. This will help to ensure that the chicken is evenly coated.
- Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before frying the chicken. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan and will also help to create a crispy crust.
- Fry the chicken in batches so that the oil does not get too crowded. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking together and will also help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Drain the chicken on paper towels before serving. This will help to remove any excess oil.
Conclusion:
Parmesan and panko chicken tenders are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a casual weeknight meal. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or honey mustard.
