Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease.

Pat the chicken tenderloins dry. If needed, cut into uniform 1–1.5 inch strips for even cooking.
- 3
In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs. In a separate bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Dip each chicken strip into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then roll in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated. Place coated tenders on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 12–15 minutes, then flip the tenders and bake for an additional 5–8 minutes, until the coating is golden and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Let the chicken tenders rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Serve with a kid-friendly dipping sauce if desired.
