Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup finely grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • ½ tsp fine sea salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Olive oil spray or brush of oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment. Beat eggs in a shallow bowl. Mix panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, paprika, ¼ tsp salt, and pepper in another bowl. Slice chicken into ¾-inch strips and season with remaining ¼ tsp salt.
  2. Dip each strip in egg, then coat thoroughly in panko mixture, pressing to adhere.
  3. Arrange in a single layer on the sheet, spray or brush with oil, and bake 12 minutes.
  4. Flip strips, then bake 8 to 10 minutes more until deeply golden and chicken registers 165°F (74°C).
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite dip.

Notes

For crunch that lasts, let the strips sit on a wire rack for a minute after baking instead of stacking them on a plate. If you want an even thicker crust, double-dip by repeating the egg and panko step before baking.
