Instructions
  1. 1

    Toast the panko

    Heat a small dry skillet over medium and add the panko. Stir often for about 3 minutes until golden, then spread it out and let it cool completely. Toasting first is the trick to a crispy baked tender without deep frying.

  1. 2

    Set up the breading

    Preheat the oven to 400F and lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. In one shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with the mustard. In a second shallow bowl, combine the cooled panko with the garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper.

  2. 3

    Bread the chicken

    Dip each chicken tenderloin in the egg mixture, let the excess drip off, then press it into the seasoned panko to coat all over. Lay the tenders on the baking sheet with space between them so they crisp instead of steam.

  3. 4

    Bake

    Bake for 10 to 13 minutes, until the coating is golden and the chicken is no longer pink inside (165F). Serve right away.
