Method
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a wire rack on top of it.
- Set up three shallow bowls for the breading station. Place the flour in the first bowl.
- Place the beaten egg in the second bowl.
- In the third bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Take one chicken strip and dredge it lightly in the flour, shaking off any excess.
- Dip the floured chicken strip into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.
- Press the chicken strip firmly into the breadcrumb mixture until it is fully coated on all sides.
- Place the coated tender on the prepared wire rack.
- Repeat this process for all the chicken strips.
- Spray the tops of the coated tenders lightly with olive oil spray.
- Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, flipping the tenders halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Serve immediately with your preferred dipping sauce.

Notes
For extra crispiness, you can lightly spray the bottom of the tenders with oil spray before placing them on the rack.
