  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a wire rack with cooking spray and set on top of a baking sheet.

  2. Pour flour into a wide bowl.

  3. Whisk egg whites with water in a separate bowl until foamy.

  4. Mix saltine crackers, pecans, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper together in a shallow bowl.

  5. Dredge chicken tenders in flour, dip in egg whites, then coat with cracker mixture. Arrange on the wire rack. Spray chicken tenders lightly with cooking spray, flip and spray the second side.

  6. Roast in the preheated oven, turning once halfway through, until crisp, 18 to 20 minutes.

Recipe Note

These baked chicken tenders are super crispy and healthier than fried! The cayenne pepper gives them just enough spice.
