INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Tenders
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/3 cup Whole Wheat Panko
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Onion Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
In a shallow dish, combine the buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken tenders to the dish, ensuring they are fully submerged. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In another shallow bowl, place the whole wheat panko. Remove each chicken tender from the buttermilk marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, and coat evenly in the panko.
Place the breaded tenders on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray the tops with cooking spray.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the exterior is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
