Description

Learn how to make delicious Easy Crack Chicken Tenders at home with this simple recipe. Perfectly crispy and flavorful, a must-try for any chicken lover!


Ingredients

  • 1 lb (454 g). chicken tenders
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix
  • 1/2 tsp (3 ml) garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp (3 ml) onion powder
  • 1 cup (240 ml) Ritz crackers, crushed


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Prepare a baking tray by lining it with parchment paper or giving it a light coating of oil.
  3. In a bowl, blend together the mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, Ranch seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth.
  4. Dip each chicken tender into the mayo mixture, then roll in the crushed Ritz crackers, pressing to ensure the coating adheres well.
  5. Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they are spaced apart for even cooking.
  6. Cook in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
  7. Let them cool slightly before serving. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!

Notes

  • Consider using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter coating on the chicken tenders.
  • Experiment with cheddar or mozzarella cheese for a unique flavor profile.
  • Add cayenne pepper or paprika to the mayo mixture for a spicy kick.
