Steps

• Oven directions

• 1

  Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with a wire baking rack and set aside.
• 2

  Toss the chicken tenders in a large bowl with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.
• 3

  Transfer the potato chips to a large zip-top bag. Use a rolling pin to crush the potato chips into a coating for the chicken strips.
• 4

  In the same bowl you used to season the chicken tenders, whisk together the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• 5

  In a separate shallow bowl, whisk the eggs. Set aside.
• 6

  Coat the chicken tenders in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Coat the tenders in the egg mixture, again shaking off any excess, then coat them entirely in the crushed potato chips. Press the chips firmly into the tenders to ensure they stick.

  Place the chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray with baking spray. Bake for 22-25 minutes at 425°F, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reads 165°F.
