1
Prepare the Chicken
Start by slicing the chicken breast into tenders, approximately 1 inch wide. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Set Up Breading Station
In three separate shallow bowls, place the flour in the first, beat the eggs in the second, and add the bread crumbs mixed with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika in the third.

3
Coat the Chicken
Take each chicken tender, first coat it in the flour, shaking off excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, allowing excess to drip off, before finally coating it in the bread crumb mixture. Ensure each piece is evenly coated.

4
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
5
Arrange Tenders
Place the breaded chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle olive oil over the top of each tender.
6
Bake the Tenders
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown. Flip the tenders halfway through for even cooking.

7
Serve
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
