Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a nonstick cookie sheet in oven with a tin foil liner.
- Heat 1/2-inch oil in a large nonstick skillet or frying pan over medium to medium high heat.
- Season chicken tenders with salt and pepper. Wash hands. Place flour in a shallow dish. Beat eggs with water in a second dish along side the flour. In a third dish, combine the breading ingredients. Coat chicken in flour, then egg, then bread and cheese mixture. To keep your hands clean, ask for plastic gloves at the butcher counter. To ease your clean up, try using disposable tin pie tins for the flour, egg and bread crumbs.
- Cook chicken until deeply golden on each side, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to cookie sheet in preheated oven and finish off for another 5 minutes cooking time. Cook chicken 5 or 6 tenders at a time in a single layer, adding additional oil if necessary. If the chicken begins to brown too quickly lower heat slightly. Serve chicken hot or cold with green salad or, complete as a Parmigiano.
- Set water on to boil for pasta and prepare according to package directions for al dente. Before coating chicken, add oil, onions and garlic to a saucepan to cook medium low heat. Stir occasionally for 10 minutes while you are working on the chicken. Add both cans of tomatoes and a cup of chicken broth and bring sauce to a bubble. Reduce heat to a simmer until ready to serve. Stir in torn basil and season sauce with salt, to your taste.
- Place a little of the sauce on the chicken tenders, top with the shredded provolone and Parmigiano. Place in oven or broiler to melt the cheese and then serve. Coat the hot, cooked pasta lightly with sauce then serve.

Tips:
- To ensure your chicken tenders are crispy and flavorful, make sure to coat them evenly in the seasoned flour mixture before pan-frying.
- Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the chicken tenders in a single layer. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from steaming.
- Cook the chicken tenders over medium heat until they are golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcooking, as this will make them dry and tough.
- Serve the chicken tenders immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
- For a healthier version of this recipe, you can bake the chicken tenders in the oven instead of pan-frying them. Simply preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the chicken tenders for 15-20 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
