Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken tenders
- 4 cups Potato chips
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- as needed Cooking spray or oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Place the potato chips in a large resealable bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or your hands. Alternatively, pulse them in a food processor. Transfer the crumbs to a shallow bowl.
In another shallow bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
In a third bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
Pat the chicken tenders dry with paper towels.
Dredge each chicken tender in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Dip the floured chicken tender into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.
Press the chicken tender into the crushed potato chips, turning it over to coat evenly. Press gently to adhere the chips well.
Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Lightly spray the top of the chicken tenders with cooking spray or drizzle a small amount of oil to help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
