# What You'll Need:
→ Chicken
01 - 1.5 lbs chicken tenders or chicken breasts cut into strips
→ Coating
02 - 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
03 - 1 oz ranch seasoning mix
04 - 0.5 teaspoon paprika
05 - 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
06 - 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
→ Wet Mixture
07 - 2 large eggs
08 - 2 tablespoons milk
→ For Baking
09 - Nonstick cooking spray or 2 tablespoons olive oil
# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. Place a wire rack on top and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
02 - In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until fully combined.
03 - In a separate shallow bowl, combine panko breadcrumbs, ranch seasoning mix, paprika, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix thoroughly.
04 - Pat chicken tenders dry with paper towels. Dip each tender in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the panko mixture, pressing gently to ensure coating adheres properly.
05 - Arrange coated tenders on the prepared wire rack, spacing them apart to allow air circulation. Lightly spray the tops with nonstick cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil for enhanced crispiness.
06 - Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking. Continue until chicken reaches a golden brown color and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
07 - Remove from oven and serve hot with your preferred dipping sauce.
