A delightful twist on chicken tenders, coated with crushed cheese crackers for a crispy and flavorful crust.
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Using aluminum foil makes cleanup easier and prevents sticking.
Place the cheese crackers in a zip-lock bag and crush them using a rolling pin until they are finely crumbled.
For a finer texture, use a food processor instead of a rolling pin.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and water until well combined.
Adding a splash of water to the eggs helps create a smoother coating.
Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture, then coat it with the crushed cheese crackers.
Press the chicken into the crumbs to ensure a thorough coating.
Arrange the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray them with cooking spray.
Spraying the chicken helps achieve a golden, crispy crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden.
Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F.
Serve the chicken tenders warm with your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes.
Pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a balanced meal.
