1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and lightly grease a baking tray.
2
In a medium shallow bowl, combine the beaten eggs, lemon juice, minced garlic, sea salt, ground black pepper, and paprika. Stir well to combine.
3
Put the roasted pistachios in a blender or food processor and pulse until they reach a coarse, breadcrumb-like consistency.
4
In another shallow bowl, combine the ground pistachios, panko breadcrumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese.
5
Dip each chicken tender into the egg mixture first, letting any excess drip off. Then, coat them in the pistachio mixture. Place each coated chicken tender onto the prepared baking tray.
6
Bake chicken tenders for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure an even golden color.
7
After baking, ensure the chicken tenders are fully cooked through by checking they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
8
For an extra-golden finish, broil the chicken tenders for around 2-3 minutes. Watch them closely to avoid burning. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
