Ingredients

• 500 grams Chicken breasts
• 100 grams Plain breadcrumbs
• 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 50 grams All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil, for drizzling

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips, roughly the size of traditional goujons, and set aside.

Step 3

In a shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a seasoned breading mixture.

Step 4

In a separate shallow dish, beat the eggs.

Step 5

Place the flour in a third dish.

Step 6

Dredge each chicken strip first in the flour, shaking off any excess.

Step 7

Dip the floured chicken strips into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are fully coated.

Step 8

Finally, coat each strip with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs. Place each coated strip onto the prepared baking sheet.

Step 9

Once all the chicken strips are coated and arranged on the baking sheet, drizzle lightly with olive oil to help them crisp up.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until the goujons are golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.

Step 11

Allow to cool slightly before serving, and enjoy your baked chicken goujons with your favorite dipping sauce!
