Ingredients
- 2 cups Fiber One Original cereal
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 pound Chicken tenders
- 2 large Eggs
- 0 as needed Olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or coat it with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2
Place the Fiber One Original cereal in a food processor and pulse until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Transfer to a shallow dish.
Step 3
Add the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the ground cereal. Mix well to combine.
Step 4
In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until fully blended.
Step 5
Pat the chicken tenders dry with a paper towel. Dip each tender into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
Step 6
Transfer the tender to the cereal mixture and press to coat evenly on all sides. Place the coated tenders on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Lightly spray the coated chicken tenders with olive oil spray to ensure crispiness during baking.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking. Cook until the chicken tenders are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 9
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad for a complete meal.
