Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

For Chicken
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 large eggs
4 cups cornflakes, finely crushed (about 1 cup crushed)
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried dill
11/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken tenders (about 20 tenders)
For Dipping
1/2 cup store-bought ranch dressing

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set a heatproof wire baking rack on top; spray rack lightly with cooking spray.
  • 2. In a small bowl or shallow dish, season flour with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; whisk eggs in another shallow dish. In a third shallow dish, mix cornflakes with parsley, garlic, dill, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of pepper.
  • 3. Dredge chicken in flour to coat, shaking off excess. Dip into egg and then into cornflake mixture, making sure entire surface is coated. Arrange on prepared baking rack.
  • 4. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through, flipping once during cooking. Serve with Buttermilk Ranch Sauce for dipping.
