Parmesan Chicken Tenders

Step 1

In shallow dish, combine Parmesan, panko, and ½ teaspoon salt. Use wooden spoon to stir until well combined.

Step 2

In large bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Add chicken to egg mixture and turn to coat well.

Step 3

Remove 1 piece of chicken, letting extra egg drip off, and add to dish with Parmesan mixture. Use your hands to gently press Parmesan mixture onto chicken. Transfer to large plate. Repeat with remaining chicken. Wash your hands.

Step 4

In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat for 2 minutes (oil should be hot but not smoking). Use tongs to carefully place half of chicken in skillet. Cook until golden brown and crispy on first side, 3 minutes.

Step 5

Use clean tongs to flip chicken and cook until chicken registers 165 degrees on instant-read thermometer, 3 to 4 minutes (ask an adult for help). Transfer cooked chicken to serving platter.

Step 6

Repeat cooking in steps 4 and 5 with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and remaining chicken. Serve.
