Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Make sure your chicken breasts are thawed and cut into strips, approximately 1 inch wide.
- 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.
- Take a large baking sheet and give it a short spray of cooking spray oil to prevent the chicken strips from sticking.
- 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.
- Place the coated chicken strips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other for even cooking.
- 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).
- While the chicken strips are baking, pour 1/2 cup ranch dressing into a small serving bowl. This will be your dipping sauce.
- 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!
