- To the 1st plate add flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika and mix.
- To the 2nd plate add egg and milk. Whisk with a fork.
- To the 3rd plate add panko bread crumbs.
- One at a time, place each chicken finger into the flour to coat, get rid of excess flour, place into egg wash dish to coat, then place into panko dish and coat well.
- Then place chicken onto your greased baking tray.
- Drizzle a little bit of melted butter or ghee on top of each chicken tender.
- Place in oven for 10 minutes, flip, and let them go for another 10 minutes. Make sure to remove the tray from the oven quickly after the first 10 minutes so as not to release the hot air, which would decrease the oven temperature.
