🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Cut the chicken breasts into regular strips. Mix the eggs with milk, salt and pepper. Marinate the chicken for 15 minutes in this mixture.

  2. 2

    In a plate, mix flour, breadcrumbs and all the spices. Coat each piece of chicken by pressing well to make the breading stick.

  3. 3

    In the oven: Arrange on an oiled baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes at 200°C, turning halfway through cooking. In a pan: Brown for 5-6 minutes on each side in a little oil.

  4. 4

    Serve with sauces of your choice: yogurt-lemon, barbecue or spicy mayonnaise.

Tips & Tricks
  • Advance preparation: Breaded tenders can be kept in the refrigerator for 24 hours before cooking
  • Light version: Mix a little oil into the breading for perfect crispiness in the oven
  • Variation: Replace chicken with white fish for Cajun nuggets
  • Spiciness control: Adjust the amount of chili according to your preferences
Enjoy your meal!
