Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper.

Stir together 1/3 cup flour and next 3 ingredients in a small bowl.

Whisk eggs just until foamy in another small bowl, and stir in pressed garlic.

Place a lightly greased wire rack in a 10- x 15-inch rimmed baking sheet. Dredge chicken tenders in flour mixture, shaking off excess; dip in egg mixture, and dredge in crushed tortilla chips. Lightly coat chicken on each side with cooking spray; arrange chicken on wire rack. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden and done, turning once after 12 minutes.

Notes:
Tortilla chips add to the crispiness of this oven-fried chicken - feel free to use your favorite brand.
