These oven baked chicken tenders are packed with flavor and so crispy! My seven year old son eats these mayo chicken nuggets like candy. These succulent and juicy oven fried chicken tenders take 10 minutes of prep work and only 30 minutes of oven time. Instead of breadcrumbs or just flour I use panko.

Panko is generally used in Japanese cooking and it can be found in the grocery store in the Asian foods aisle. I definitely prefer panko to regular breadcrumbs because of its lighter and more delicate texture. When I made them, I wasn’t sure if they should be called oven baked chicken nuggets or baked chicken tenders. My son loves calling them golden nuggets, however the adults in my family prefer to call these crumbed chicken.

And I feel so much better feeding him this healthier oven baked version vs. Preparing chicken tenders Prep work is really easy! First dip the chicken strips into mayonnaise. Then dredge them in the seasoned bread crumbs mixture. It includes Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Salt and Pepper. Mayo is the glue that will hold the crumbs together.

And I think it’s the mayo that makes them so addictive! By the way, I use regular mayo in the mixture, but like to eat them dipped into Sriracha mayo. To start making them, place crumbled chicken nuggets in a single layer on the baking sheet. They are ready for the oven. The resulting crumbed chicken tenders with lovely golden crumb are just fabulous. These can be served fresh, or kept refrigerated for up to 5 days.

Add a little oil or butter and cook them on medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes. But my recommendation is to bake the tenders either on the parchment paper lined baking sheet or a wire rack, if you have one. Preheat the oven to 325 and bake for 7 yo 10 minutes. Usually 10 minutes in the oven will deliver great taste and crispiness once again! Mix equal parts of ketchup and mayo and use it a dip! Honey mustard dressing tastes great with chicken nuggets! And of course they are perfectly delicious dipped in traditional ketchup.

I also like to sprinkle mine with fresh herbs, like thyme. Mix in some Dijon Mustard into the mayo for additional flavor! So if you are like me and were looking for a healthier alternative to fried chicken nuggets for your child, these oven baked chicken tenders are the answer. I find that this baked version of chicken nuggets tastes a lot better. So next time you find yourself craving some chicken tenders in the convenience of your own home, you know what to do.
