Ingredients

vegetable cooking spray (such as I Can't Believe It's Not Butter!®)
1 egg, beaten
1 ¼ cups panko bread crumbs
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken tenders, cut into 1/2-inch strips lengthwise

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
Place egg in a shallow dish. Place bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper into a large zip-top freezer bag and mix well. Dip 2 chicken strips into egg and then place into bread crumb mixture and shake to coat. Place coated chicken pieces onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken.
Spray each chicken tender with cooking spray 2 times.
Bake tenders in the preheated oven for 7 minutes; flip, continue to bake on opposite side until no longer pink in the centers, about 7 minutes more. Remove from the oven.
Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
Broil tenders in the preheated oven for extra crunch, about 2 minutes more.

Feel free to use any type of gluten free rice cereal or gluten free flours that you like to add the crunchy texture on the outside of the chicken tenders. A few different options are Gluten Free Chex-Mix Rice Cereal, Gluten Free Brown Rice Cereal and other gluten free flours.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast (, cut into thin strips)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (, or to taste)
1 teaspoon onion powder (, or to taste)
kosher salt (or sea salt, to taste)
fresh black pepper (, to taste)
1 1/2 cups gluten-free cereal
2 large eggs

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Rinse and pat dry the chicken. Season the chicken strips on both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Crush the gluten-free cereal either in a food processor or place in a large bowl and crush the cereal by hand. If you want a more fine crumb, then pulse the cereal in the food processor. If you want a more coarse crumb texture on your chicken strips, then hand crush them to your desired texture.
In a bowl, beat the eggs.
Dip the chicken into the egg mixture and allow the excess egg to drip off the chicken.
Lay the chicken into the gluten-free cereal crumbs. Place all the coated chicken strips on the lined sheetpan.
Bake the coated chicken for 15 minutes. Then flip the chicken and cook for another 10-15 minutes or until cooked through and golden.
Serve warm with ketchup or your favorite dip.
