Ingredients
- 500g chicken tenders (or chicken strips)
- 1 cup crushed crackers (or breadcrumbs)
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- ½ cup mayonnaise (optional, for extra creaminess)
- Cooking oil (for frying or baking spray)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) or heat oil in a pan for frying.
- In a bowl, mix crushed crackers, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs with milk and mayonnaise.
- Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture.
- Coat well with the cracker mixture, pressing gently.
- Place on a greased baking tray or carefully into hot oil.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes (turn halfway) or fry until golden and crispy.
- Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips
- For extra crispiness, double-coat the chicken (dip again in egg and crumbs).
- Add chili powder if you like spicy flavor.
- Use an air fryer at 180°C for 12–15 minutes for a healthier option.
- Serve with garlic mayo, honey mustard, or BBQ sauce for best taste.
- Marinate chicken in yogurt for 30 minutes for extra tenderness.
