Need a healthy kid-friendly snack? Serve them as-is with ketchup or sweet and sour sauce for dipping! Want a light and filling meal for yourself? Add the tenders to salads, wraps, or grain bowls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite things about cooking chicken tenders in the oven is that you don&rsquo;t need breadcrumbs to make them crispy. All it takes is simple seasonings and the heat of the oven to create a slightly crisp crust around the outside and tender, juicy meat on the inside. Breaded tenders will be a thing of the past once you bite into one of these!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chicken-tenders-ingredients\">Chicken Tenders Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"Unlike air frying or pan frying, these Baked Chicken Tenders are mostly hands-off and oil-free!

This is how you achieve a golden, crispy exterior.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Let the chicken tenders rest for 5 minutes<\/strong> after cooking to give the natural juices time to settle back into the meat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block-tip cwp-inner\">\n\n<p class=\"block-tip__subtitle\">My Pro Tip<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading block-tip__title\" id=\"recipe-tip\">Recipe Tip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of your tenders. <\/strong>Generally, they take around 18 to 25 minutes to cook through in a 425&deg;F oven. Smaller, thinner strips may be done in as little as 15 to 18 minutes.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-variations\">Variations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These breadcrumb-free chicken tenders are pretty much a blank canvas, giving you plenty of room to play with the flavors in any way you like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Change the seasonings<\/strong> &ndash; Go ahead and swap the seasonings in the recipe card for 1 to 2 tablespoons of a poultry seasoning blend, a BBQ dry rub, spicy blackened or Cajun seasoning, lemon pepper seasoning, or a dry ranch seasoning mix.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Brush with a glaze or sauce <\/strong>&ndash; For a sticky, flavor-packed finish, brush your tenders with BBQ sauce, teriyaki glaze, honey mustard, buffalo sauce, or sweet chili sauce during the last 5 minutes of baking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Marinate the chicken<\/strong> &ndash; If you have the time, consider marinating the chicken in one of my <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/chicken-marinades\/\">chicken marinades<\/a> for 30 minutes to 2 hours before patting them dry and tossing them in the seasonings.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-serving-suggestions\">Serving suggestions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These crispy baked chicken tenders are an excellent match for just about any dipping sauce you can think of. Ketchup, creamy ranch, honey mustard, BBQ sauce, buffalo sauce, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/chipotle-aioli\/\">chipotle aioli<\/a>, or sweet chili sauce are all delicious options. In fact, you should put out a platter of sauces so you can mix and match!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re serving the tenders for a filling lunch or dinner, I recommend pairing them with a side of french fries, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/homemade-coleslaw\/\">coleslaw<\/a>, and roasted vegetables. You can also slice the tenders and top them on an <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/apple-pecan-salad\/\">apple pecan salad<\/a>, an <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/autumn-harvest-bowl\/\">autumn harvest bowl<\/a>, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/corn-kale-salad\/\">grilled corn kale salad<\/a> for extra protein. Any extras would be delicious wrapped in a pita or tortilla with leafy greens, <a href=\"https:\/\/thealmondeater.com\/homemade-tzatziki-sauce\/\">tzatziki sauce<\/a>, and vegetables.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1755030432761\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Do I need to oil chicken tenders before baking?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">I found that the seasonings stuck to the chicken and browned nicely in the oven even without tossing them in oil first.
