Faux Fried Chicken Tenders

You know when you just want FRIED chicken tenders from your favorite local establishment....welp, here is a GREAT alternative!! There are many ways to make these your own as this is just a simple recipe and you can spice it up how you wish!! 

First, I soaked boneless, skinless chicken tenders in buttermilk overnight.  This can soak for up to 2 days.

When read to cook, for coating, mix these ingredients in a medium bowl.

• 2/3 cup panko 
• 1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley 
• 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder

Remove each tender from buttermilk and immediately coat with spice mixture and place on greased cookie sheet. Continue process until all tenders are on cookie sheet. Spray top of tenders with vegetable oil cooking spray.  Dispose of buttermilk and remaining spice mixture.  Cook for 20 min at 400 degrees or until tenders reach 165 degrees.
