Crispy Parmesan Chicken Strips

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (125 ml) regular mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup (125 ml) grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) dried basil, crumbled
  • 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) dried chili flakes (optional)
  • 2/3 cup (160 ml) panko crumbs
  • 3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts cut lengthwise into 4-5 strips per breast, or 20 chicken breast filets.

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.

 

  1. Combine mayo, Dijon mustard, 1/4 cup Parmesan, basil, and chili flakes in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish, spread out panko crumbs and remaining Parmesan.

 

  1. Roll each chicken breast strip or filet in mayo mixture, and then roll in panko mixture until coated on all sides. Arrange chicken strips on a parchment covered cookie sheet so strips do not touch each other.

 

  1. Bake for 7 minutes on one side then flip strips and continue baking until chicken is crispy and meat thermometer reads 165°F (74°C), about 7 more minutes.

 

  1. Serve hot with a favorite dipping sauce or cool thoroughly and serve over salad.
