Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with foil and place a cooling rack sprayed with non-stick on top. Set aside.
Add canola (or vegetable oil) to a large skillet.
½ cup canola oil
Cut chicken breasts into strips, removing any fat. (Alternately, use chicken tenders).
1 lb chicken breasts
In one shallow dish add the all purpose flour. In another, whisk together the eggs with milk and hot sauce. In the third dish, combine Panko, parmesan and herbs. Stir to combine.
1 cup all purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoon milk, 1 teaspoon hot sauce, 1 cup Panko, ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1.5 teaspoon dried oregano, 1.5 teaspoon dried parsley, 1.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1.5 teaspoon garlic powder, 1.5 teaspoon onion powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
Dredge chicken first through the flour, shaking off any excess, then into the egg mixture and finally into the Panko mixture. Place on a cutting board or plate and repeat until all chicken is coated.
Heat skillet over medium high heat and once hot, place chicken strips into the skillet cooking about 3 minutes on each side, until lightly golden brown. (You may need to work in batches to not overcrowd the skillet).
Transfer chicken to the cooling sheet and once all chicken is pan-fried, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes until the chicken strips reach and internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
