Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place butter in a 9x13-inch baking dish and allow it to melt in the oven as it preheats. (5 minutes)

02

Step
0 mins

Slice chicken breast against the grain into thin strips to ensure tenderness.

03

Step
0 mins

Prepare three separate bowls: one with the ranch dressing mix, another with the egg and milk whisked together, and a third with the bread crumbs.

04

Step
0 mins

Dredge each chicken strip thoroughly in the ranch dressing mix, ensuring an even coating. Next, dip the ranch-coated chicken in the egg mixture, followed by a generous coating of bread crumbs. Arrange the breaded chicken strips in the prepared baking dish.

05

Step
30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Gently flip the chicken pieces and continue baking until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), approximately 15 minutes longer. (30 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken strips in a portion of the ranch dressing mix mixed with a little buttermilk for at least 30 minutes before breading.
Ensure the butter is fully melted in the baking dish to prevent the chicken from sticking and to promote even browning.
Feel free to experiment with different types of bread crumbs, such as panko, for a crispier texture.

    Baking them instead of frying is a game-changer. Healthier and just as delicious!

    These chicken tenders are a hit with my kids! So easy to make and they love the ranch flavor.

  • Jayde Franey

    I added a pinch of garlic powder to the bread crumbs, and it gave them an extra zing!

  • Ciara Jakubowski

    I found that using a wire rack on top of the baking sheet helped the bottoms get crispy too!
