Ingredients

¾ teaspoon salt
¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 pounds chicken breast tenderloins
6 eggs
1 ½ cups panko bread crumbs
9 tablespoons canola oil, divided
¾ cup Buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank's®), or to taste
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

Sprinkle salt and black pepper over chicken breast tenderloins.
Whisk eggs in a shallow bowl until smooth. Place panko in a separate shallow bowl.
Dip both sides of each chicken breast in the eggs and then in the panko.
Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook 1/3 of the breaded tenderloins until crusts are golden and centers are no longer pink, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate. Repeat with remaining oil and breaded tenderloins in 2 batches.
Return all chicken to the skillet. Pour wing sauce over chicken. Sprinkle cheese on top. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
