I love using Panko breadcrumbs they add the perfect texture, and the breading doesn’t come off after cooling. You’ll be amazed at how quickly these come together. Served with potatoes, pasta, veggies or on top of a salad, you can’t really go wrong. Perfect for a easy weeknight meal.
Chicken tenders are usually so soft just pressing them in the bread crumbs makes them thin. But if you want to use large chicken breasts. Then place the chicken in a ziplock freezer bag and pound chicken using a meat mallet, or rolling pin starting in the middle and working outward, until about 4 inch thick. If the chicken is really thick you can slice the breasts horizontally then pound them out.
