Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and generously coat with nonstick cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Prepare the chicken by cutting the chicken breasts into thin strips, approximately 1-inch wide. This ensures even cooking and maximum crispiness. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and water until well combined. In a separate shallow dish, mix the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried parsley, black pepper, and salt. Ensure the spices are evenly distributed throughout the bread crumbs. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Dip each chicken strip into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, dredge the chicken in the bread crumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere to all sides. Place the coated chicken strips onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. (15 minutes)

05

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping the chicken strips halfway through, until they are golden brown, crispy on the outside, and fully cooked inside. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). (20 minutes)

For extra crispy chicken, try using panko bread crumbs instead of regular bread crumbs.
Experiment with different seasonings in the bread crumb mixture, such as paprika, onion powder, or Italian seasoning.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, such as honey mustard, barbecue sauce, or ranch dressing.
To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken.
For easier cleanup, use parchment paper instead of aluminum foil.
These chicken strips can also be air-fried for an even quicker and healthier option. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
