Ingredients

    1 cup crushed Pork Rinds
    8 Chicken Breast Tenders;
    1/3 Cup Great Value 100% Parmesan Grated Cheese
    2 tsp Salt
    1 tsp Pepper, black
    1 tsp Garlic powder
    2 Eggs, beaten lightly for dipping.

Tips

The more you can grind/chop the pork rinds, the more it looks like real breading on your chicken pieces. The taste is really good.


Directions

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees. Cover cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In food processor, blend pork rinds, parmesan cheese and seasonings, until very finely crushed...as fine as bread crumbs.

Dip each chicken tender into the egg, then dredge into the pork rind/cheese mixture until completely covered. Place on the parchment paper on the cookie sheet. Lightly cover in foil.

Bake at 350 degrees initially for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and turn tenders over. Bake additional 15 minutes, until golden brown, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.



Serving Size: 8 single 4 oz. servings of chicken
