Crispy Baked Chicken Tenderloin

1.Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly spray the paper with oil spray.

2.Season the chicken tenderloins with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Ensure each piece is well coated with the seasoning mix.

3.In a shallow dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, dried oregano, dried basil, and onion powder to create the breading mixture.

4.In another shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and water to make the egg wash.

5.Dip each seasoned chicken tenderloin first into the egg wash, ensuring it's fully coated, then roll it in the breading mixture until well covered. Shake off any excess breading.

6.Arrange the breaded chicken tenderloins on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not touching each other to allow for even cooking.

7.Lightly spray the tops of the breaded tenderloins with oil spray to help achieve a crispy texture when baking.

8.Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breading is golden and crispy.

9.Serve the crispy baked chicken tenderloins hot with lemon wedges and your choice of dipping sauce.
