Ingredients

3 Ounce
chicken thighs
1/8 Teaspoon
salt
1/4 Teaspoon
pepper
1/4 Teaspoon
garlic powder
1/4 Teaspoon
paprika
1/4 Teaspoon
cumin
1/2 Tablespoon
olive oil
1/2 Tablespoon
cooking spray
1/4 Cup
all-purpose flour
1
egg
1/4 Cup
panko crumbs
1
corn
1/4
cucumber
1
peach
1/4 Cup
green pea crisps

Directions

Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Cut the chicken thighs into strips approximately the size of a finger. We’re using chicken thighs because they are the softest cut for kids, but you can also use pre-cut chicken tenders from the store.
Step 3
Season the chicken strips with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix everything until well combined. Set the seasoned chicken aside and reserve it for later. Grease a baking tray with avocado oil spray and reserve for later.
Step 4
Set up a dredging station on your countertop. Place three plates: on one plate, put the flour; on the second plate, place the beaten eggs; and on the third plate, place the panko crumbs.
