Description

This is a delicious, very crunchy spicy chicken strip prepared in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 4 whole Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts, Cut Into Strips
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 2 teaspoons Tabasco Sauce
  • 1 cup Plain Panko Bread Crumbs
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Paprika
  • ½ teaspoons Onion Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Garlic Powder
  • ½ teaspoons Cayenne Pepper

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine milk and Tabasco sauce in a bowl. The vinegar in the Tabasco sauce will make the milk into a thick buttermilk. Add chicken and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
2. Combine bread crumbs and dry seasonings in a bowl. Bread chicken. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Sprinkle extra crumbs on top of the chicken. Bake chicken for 30-45 minutes, or until chicken is firm, browned, and has an internal temperature of 165 degrees.

Tried this one and it’s delicious! Used boneless chicken thigh though instead of chicken breast.

I followed this recipe *almost* 100%. Instead of Tabasco, I used Cholula (what I had in the pantry); and instead of regular Panko, I used whole-wheat Panko (for some reason, my grocery store was out of regular Panko!). The tenders cooked up so well! Very crunchy, with just the right amount of spice. I served these with a horseradish dipping sauce, which was great, but would also have been great with Ranch or Blue Cheese dressing.

The whole family loved it!! I put a whole bunch more tabasco in. We like super spicy! It has already been requested again!

These were very good. Our whole family enjoyed them they are a step up from a regular chicken tender. A hint spicy with a good amount of crunch. Easy to prepare.

Great everyday recipe that is easily adapted to make it a little less spicy for little ones. This is now my “go to” recipe for chicken strips.

These were yummy! This was my first time using panko bread crumbs and it will not be my last. I ended up need a bit extra of the bread crumb mixture to fully coat all my strips. I loved the crispiness of it all.

I didn’t have any of the spicy ingredients, but this recipe sounded good anyway! I tried corricky’s trick of putting straight vinegar into the milk, but after I put my chicken in, I started worrying that I had messed it up. I ended up washing my chicken and just using a beaten egg to adhere the panko. This recipe produced a nice, crunchy chicken strip, way better than the panko chicken I’ve tried to deep-fry. Without the spiciness though, I should’ve given my chicken a little seasoning as it was a little bland. Went great with ketchup!

These turned out great! Very crunchy and flavorful. Just be sure not to overcook the chicken- I almost did.
