Golden, crunchy and ideal for dipping, they\u2019re a great choice for dinner, especially if you have picky eaters. While stopping at the drive-thru or frozen section of the grocery store is convenient, homemade oven-baked chicken tenders are tastier, better for you and easier than you might think.<\/p>\n<p>Keep reading to learn how to make our baked chicken tenders recipe, plus we&#8217;ll show you tips and tricks for adding fun seasonings and making an extra-crunchy coating.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Baked Chicken Tenders<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Egg:<\/strong> An egg binds the bread crumb coating to the chicken. You can either use one egg or an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/using-egg-substitute\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/using-egg-substitute\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">egg substitute<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mustard:<\/strong> Squeeze a bit of mustard into the beaten egg. It\u2019ll add a nice zippiness to the oven-baked chicken tenders.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic:<\/strong> Mince one clove of pungent garlic and add it to the egg mixture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bread crumbs:<\/strong> Buy your bread crumbs from the store, whip up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/homemade-bread-crumbs\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/homemade-bread-crumbs\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">homemade bread crumbs<\/a> yourself, or try a genius <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/substitute-for-bread-crumbs\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/substitute-for-bread-crumbs\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">substitute for bread crumbs<\/a> like ground nuts or pretzels. Feel free to use panko bread crumbs instead of regular dry bread crumbs too. Panko crumbs are larger and coarser, giving baked chicken tenders recipes more of a crunch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seasonings:<\/strong> This oven-baked chicken tenders recipe is seasoned with dried basil, smoky paprika, and a bit of salt and pepper. Feel free to add more spices as you wish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken:<\/strong> When you\u2019re at the store, look for chicken tenderloins that have a pink hue and no signs of greying meat. Double-check that the sell-by date is a day or two out and the package is leak-free.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Prep the dredge<\/h3>\n<p>First, preheat your oven to 400\u00b0F.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2080791\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Baked-Chicken-Tenders-TOHcom24_35065_DR_10_29_13b.jpg?fit=700,1024\" alt=\"In a shallow bowl, whisk together egg substitute, mustard and garlic.\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">DAN ROBERTS FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a shallow bowl, combine the egg, mustard and minced garlic with a whisk.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2080792\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Baked-Chicken-Tenders-TOHcom24_35065_DR_10_29_14b.jpg?fit=700,1024\" alt=\"In another shallow bowl, toss bread crumbs with seasonings.\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">DAN ROBERTS FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In another shallow bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, basil, paprika, salt and pepper.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Dredge the chicken<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2080793\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Baked-Chicken-Tenders-TOHcom24_35065_DR_10_29_15b.jpg?fit=700,1024\" alt=\"Dip chicken in egg mixture, then coat with crumb mixture.\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">DAN ROBERTS FOR TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dip each chicken tender fully into the egg mixture, shake off the excess, then coat the chicken in the bread crumbs. While the tender is in the bread crumbs, gently press the crumbs into the chicken. This will help the breading stick and ensure it\u2019s even over the whole tender.<\/p>\n<p>Transfer the tenders to a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.<\/p>\n<p><em>Test Kitchen Tip:<\/em> To up the crunchiness of your tenders, give them a quick spritz of cooking spray on each side before they go in the oven.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Bake the tenders<\/h3>\n<p>After all the chicken tenders have been breaded, bake them in your preheated oven until the breading is golden brown and the chicken is no longer pink and has reached 165\u00b0, 10 to 15 minutes.<\/p>\n<p><em>Test Kitchen Tip:<\/em>\u00a0You may need to flip your chicken tenders around the halfway mark to prevent one side from browning too much.

Try something new by substituting curry powder for the basil in your crumb mixture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bring on the heat:<\/strong> Squeeze a bit of hot sauce in the egg mixture. Cholula is our go-to, but you can use any brand that\u2019s your favorite. Add chili flakes or ground cayenne to the dry breading. But be careful, a little bit will go a long way!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Create more texture:<\/strong> Instead of dry bread crumbs, crush pretzels in a food processor or in a resealable bag for a coarser crumb with added saltiness. Crumbled cornflakes also make a great breading for chicken tenders, giving them a crisp texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Baked Chicken Tenders<\/h2>\n<p>If you happen to have leftover chicken tenders (kudos to your self-control), simply let them cool to room temp and store them in an airtight container for up to four days.<\/p>\n<p>To reheat leftover tenders, bake them in a 350\u00b0 oven until the internal temperature reaches 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze baked chicken tenders?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, whether you\u2019re meal prepping or have leftover chicken tenders, these homemade oven-baked chicken tenders can be frozen. You can do this by placing the baked, room-temperature chicken tenders in a freezer storage bag or airtight container and keeping them in the freezer for up to four months.<\/p>\n<p>To use frozen chicken tenders, transfer them to the refrigerator to defrost overnight. Then, carefully transfer the tenders to a baking sheet and bake them in a 350\u00b0 oven until the internal temperature reaches 165\u00b0.<\/p>\n<h2>Baked Chicken Tender Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>What should I serve with baked chicken tenders recipes?<\/h3>\n<p>We have to be honest, oven-baked chicken tenders go well with pretty much everything! That said, these are the items we tend to serve alongside our tenders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A green vegetable:<\/strong> Whether it\u2019s a simple side salad or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/roasted-green-vegetable-medley\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/roasted-green-vegetable-medley\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">veggie medley<\/a>, something green is always a good idea.<\/li>\n<li><strong>A starchy side:<\/strong> From ooey-gooey <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/potluck-macaroni-and-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/potluck-macaroni-and-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">macaroni and cheese<\/a> to crispy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/french-fries\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/french-fries\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">french fries<\/a>, layer on the carbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lots of condiments:<\/strong> Load up your plate with hot honey, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/spicy-ketchup\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/spicy-ketchup\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">spicy ketchup<\/a>, hot sauce, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/quick-easy-honey-mustard\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/quick-easy-honey-mustard\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">honey mustard<\/a>, barbecue &#8230; the list can go on and on!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How can I use my oven-baked chicken tenders?<\/h3>\n<p>Besides eating them with a dipping sauce, you can roll the tenders into a lunch wrap or cut them up and toss them in a salad.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I air-fry this baked chicken tenders recipe instead?<\/h3>\n<p>You absolutely can air-fry chicken tenders instead of baking them! Spray the dredged chicken tenders with cooking spray, then cook them in a 400\u00b0 air fryer for seven to eight minutes before flipping the tenders over and repeating on the other side.<\/p>\n<h3>Why is the breading falling off?<\/h3>\n<p>There are a few reasons <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/breaded-chicken-tips\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/breaded-chicken-tips\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">why the breading keeps falling off the chicken<\/a>. The most likely reason is that you aren&#8217;t drying the meat before running it through the dredging stations. Excess moisture won\u2019t keep the breading on the chicken. Also, don\u2019t be skimpy with the crumb coating! Really pat the chicken into the bread crumbs. Get every nook and cranny. Finally, and maybe the hardest to follow: Be patient. I know you want to dive right into the crispy chicken tenders, but you need to let the coating solidify and firm up a bit after it bakes.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does it take to bake chicken tenders?<\/h3>\n<p>Bake chicken tenders until they\u2019re no longer pink and they reach an internal temp of 165\u00b0, which will take 10 to 15 minutes in a 400\u00b0 oven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feel like a kid again with this easy chicken tenders
