Oven Baked Cheez-It Chicken Tenders image

This came out of a cookbook I bought for my daughter... but I have to admit that I really like it too! It's a great recipe for your kids to help you make, and they think it's so cool to cook with Cheez-it's!

Categories     Chicken

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups Cheez-It crackers (or similar, small cheddar flavored crackers)
2 eggs
1/4 cup water
nonstick cooking spray (such as Pam)
1 lb chicken tenders (or boneless skinless breasts, cut into strips)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil (or silpat if you have it).
  • Place the Cheez-it's in a zip-lock baggie and give it to your kid to play catch, touch football, whatever. Smack the back a few times with a rolling pin... get the cheese-it's crushed, but don't worry if there are some larger pieces. Pour into a shallow bowl or plate.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the water. Whisk together until combined well. (something else your child can do!).
  • Dip the chicken in the egg mixture, then roll around in the crushed Cheez-it's (kids love this part!)
  • Place on the cookie sheet, continue until all the chicken is coated.
  • Lightly spray all coated chicken with the cooking spray.
  • Bake at 350°F about 15 -20 minutes (start checking the smaller ones after 10 minutes. I always pull them out as they get cooked through so that the smallest isn't incinerated by the time the largest piece is done cooking).

These chicken tenders were a bit too cheesy for my taste.

The chicken tenders were a bit dry, but the Cheez-It coating was delicious. I think I would add a little more oil to the pan next time.

These chicken tenders were easy to make and very tasty. I used panko breadcrumbs instead of Cheez-Its and they still turned out great. I will definitely be making these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken tenders turned out perfectly. They were cooked through but still tender and juicy. The Cheez-It coating was crispy and flavorful. I served them with honey mustard sauce and they were delicious.

These chicken tenders were a hit with my family! They were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The Cheez-It coating added a delicious cheesy flavor. I will definitely be making these again.
