Instructions
Creating Baked Chicken Tenders with Low Carb Ingredients is straightforward. Follow these simple steps for a delicious outcome:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare Chicken: Pat the chicken tenderloins dry with a paper towel. This helps the coating adhere better.
3. Make Coating Mixture: In a bowl, combine almond flour, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure even seasoning.
4. Prepare Egg Wash: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well combined.
5. Coat Chicken: Take each chicken tenderloin, dip it into the egg wash, and then coat it with the almond flour mixture. Press gently to ensure the coating sticks.
6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken tenders on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, drizzle with olive oil for added crispiness.
7. Bake Chicken: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown.
8. Check Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
9. Serve: Once cooked, remove the chicken tenders from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
