Method
- Take a moment to gather all of the ingredients needed for this recipe. This will help ensure a smooth and efficient cooking process.1 lb Chicken Breast, ¾ tsp Salt, 3 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour, 1 Large Egg, 1½ tsp Sriracha, 1 Cup Panko Bread Crumbs, ½ Cup Coconut, 2 Tbsp Sesame Seeds, ½ tsp Paprika, ½ tsp Garlic Powder, 1 Tbsp Olive Oil, ⅓ Caup Mayonnaise, ¼ Cup Asian Sweet Chili Sauce, 1 Tbsp Sriracha
- Begin by preheating your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a wire rack in an 18x13-inch rimmed baking sheet. Spray the wire rack with nonstick cooking spray. This will prevent the chicken from sticking to the rack. Next, sprinkle the chicken tenders with 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Set the chicken aside while you prepare the breading.1 lb Chicken Breast, ¾ tsp Salt
- Prepare your breading stations. You'll need three shallow dishes. In the first dish, place the flour. This will be your first coating for the chicken. In the second dish, whisk together the egg and Sriracha. This will help the breading adhere to the chicken. In the third dish, combine the panko breadcrumbs, shredded coconut, sesame seeds, paprika, garlic powder, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon of salt. Drizzle the panko mixture with the olive oil and use your hands or a fork to mix until all the panko is lightly coated with the oil. This will help create a crispy coating.¾ tsp Salt, 3 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour, 1 Large Egg, 1½ tsp Sriracha, 1 Cup Panko Bread Crumbs, ½ Cup Coconut, 2 Tbsp Sesame Seeds, ½ tsp Paprika, ½ tsp Garlic Powder, 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
- Now it's time to coat the chicken! Working with one chicken tender at a time, dip it into the flour, shake off any excess, and then dip it into the egg mixture to coat. Next, dredge the chicken tender in the panko mixture, making sure to coat all sides. Press the panko mixture gently onto the chicken to help it adhere. Place the breaded chicken tender on the prepared rack. Repeat this process with the remaining chicken tenders.3 Tbsp All-Purpose Flour, 1 Large Egg
- Carefully place the baking sheet with the breaded chicken tenders in the preheated oven. Bake the chicken tenders until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and fully cooked on the inside. This should take about 15 minutes. To ensure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The safe internal temperature for cooked chicken is 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).1 lb Chicken Breast

Notes
- Chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or tenderloins. Cut them into even strips for consistent cooking.
- Breading: Panko breadcrumbs create a light and crispy coating.
- Coconut: Unsweetened shredded coconut adds a sweet and nutty flavor. If you don't have shredded coconut, you can use flaked coconut or even finely chopped almonds or walnuts.
- Seasonings: Paprika and garlic powder add flavor to the breading. You can experiment with other spices like onion powder, chili powder, or cayenne pepper.
- Sriracha: Sriracha adds a spicy kick to both the chicken and the dipping sauce. Adjust the amount to your liking.
- Dipping Sauce: The combination of mayonnaise, Asian sweet chili sauce, and Sriracha creates a sweet, spicy, and tangy dipping sauce. You can use other dipping sauces like honey mustard, ketchup, or barbecue sauce.
- Even Coating: Make sure the chicken tenders are evenly coated in each of the breading ingredients. This will ensure a crispy and flavorful crust.
- Don't Overcrowd: When baking the chicken tenders, don't overcrowd the baking sheet. This will ensure that they cook evenly and become crispy.
- Check for Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken tenders are cooked through. The safe internal temperature for cooked chicken is 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
- Keep Warm: If you're making a large batch, keep the cooked chicken tenders warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest.
- Sides: Serve with your favorite sides, such as french fries, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
- Dipping Sauces: Offer a variety of dipping sauces for people to choose from.
- Presentation: Arrange the chicken tenders on a platter with the dipping sauce on the side.
- Spicy: Add more Sriracha or another hot sauce to the breading or dipping sauce.
- Sweet: Add a touch of honey or maple syrup to the breading for a hint of sweetness.
- Gluten-Free: Use gluten-free panko breadcrumbs and all-purpose flour.
- Air Fryer: You can also cook the chicken tenders in an air fryer. Follow your air fryer's instructions for cooking time and temperature.
