Equipment

  • Sheet Pan These USA stainless steel sheet pans are great for one-pan meals!
  • Aluminum Foil This non-stick aluminum foil by Reynolds is perfect for making sure your chicken tenders don't stick to the pan!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lbs. chicken breasts boneless, skinless (2-3 medium)
  • 1/3 cup Parmesan Ranch Dipping Sauce
  • 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 Tablespoons dried parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil, and fit with baking rack. Lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • On a cutting board, slice the chicken breasts into 1/2" tenders. Place sliced chicken into a resealable plastic bag. Add the Parmesan Ranch Dipping Sauce, and coat chicken well.
  • In a shallow dish (a pie plate works well), add the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley flakes, salt and pepper. Stir together to combine.
  • With a fork or tongs, add the ranch coated chicken to the breadcrumb mixture, and coat all sides. Shake off excess crumbs and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake chicken tenders for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from oven, and serve with additional Parmesan Ranch Dipping Sauce.

Notes

Once the chicken is removed from the resealable plastic bag, be sure to discard any remaining ranch sauce that is in the bag with the raw chicken. Do not consume this.
