Ingredients

1 pound chicken tenderloins *about 12 tenders
2 eggs *beaten
1 ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375° and a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place the chicken on a clean cutting board, pat it dry with paper towels, and sprinkle it lightly with salt and pepper.
Next, set up your breading station. Have your chicken on the cutting board, then the beaten eggs in a bowl, and the shredded parm on a plate. Place the lined baking sheet beside them.
Then, dip the chicken into the egg, then coat both sides with parmesan, then transfer it to the lined baking sheet. Keep the pieces spaced out and not touching. Repeat until all of the chicken is coated.
Next, pop the sheet into the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the bottom has browned, then flip the pieces over and bake for another 10-12 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken has reached 165°.
Take the sheet out of the oven and enjoy the chicken tenders warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
