Bake chicken strips

This simple recipe combines tender chicken breasts with a zesty mix of spices and a deliciously tangy ranch dressing.

Ingredients:

1 tsp black pepper
2.10g
16 oz chicken breasts
450g
1 short spray cooking spray oil
0.30g
2 tbsp pepper sauce
30g
1/2 cup ranch dressing
120g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken:
- Make sure your chicken breasts are thawed and cut into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
3. Season the Chicken:
- Pat the chicken strips dry with a paper towel.
- Sprinkle black pepper evenly over the chicken strips. You can adjust the quantity according to your taste preference.
4. Prepare a Baking Sheet:
- Take a large baking sheet and give it a short spray of cooking spray oil to prevent the chicken strips from sticking.
5. Coat the Chicken:
- In a medium bowl, pour the 2 tbsp pepper sauce.
- One by one, dip the chicken strips into the pepper sauce, ensuring each strip is well-coated.
6. Arrange the Strips:
- Place the coated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other for even cooking.
7. Bake the Chicken:
- Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken strips are golden brown and cooked through (the internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
8. Prepare the Dip:
- While the chicken strips are baking, pour 1/2 cup ranch dressing into a small serving bowl. This will be your dipping sauce.
9. Serve:
- Once the chicken strips are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them rest for a minute or two.
- Serve the hot and crispy Shake 'n Bake Chicken Strips with ranch dressing on the side for dipping.

Tips:

- For extra crunch, you can double-coat the chicken strips by dipping them in the ranch dressing twice and then adding more shake mix.

- If you prefer a spicier kick, add some chili powder or cayenne pepper to the black pepper and pepper sauce mixture.

- To ensure even cooking, try to cut the chicken breasts into uniform-sized strips.

- Always preheat your oven to the recommended temperature to achieve that perfect crispy texture.

- Using parchment paper on your baking sheet can help prevent the chicken from sticking and make clean-up easier.

Bake Chicken Strips are an effortless and delightful way to enjoy a crispy chicken dish with minimal preparation. With just a few ingredients and some simple steps, you can create a delicious meal that's sure to impress. Serve these strips with your favorite sides or enjoy them on their own for a satisfying bite. Happy cooking!
