Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, season the chicken tenders with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well and allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    Prepare three shallow plates: one with all-purpose flour, one with a beaten egg, and one with breadcrumbs.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Bread the Chicken

    Take each marinated chicken tender and coat it in flour, shaking off excess. Then, dip it into the beaten egg, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs. Make sure the tenders are well covered.

  2. 4

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers.

  3. 5

    Cook the Chicken Tenders

    Add the breaded chicken tenders to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve

    Remove the chicken tenders from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
