3 tablespoons fat-free milk
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders (1 pound = about 10 tenders)

1/2 cup Egg Beaters® With Yolk
3 tablespoons fat-free milk
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders (1 pound = about 10 tenders)

1. Preheat oven to 350° F. Place panko crumbs on baking sheet; lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven; cool completely. Place flat wire rack on baking sheet; set aside.
2. Combine Egg Beaters and milk in shallow dish; set aside. Combine toasted panko crumbs, cheese, and pepper in another shallow dish. Place flour in a third shallow dish.

Cook's Tips:
- Serve with Hunt's® tomato sauce for dipping.
- Panko bread crumbs can be found in most local grocery stores. The breading and cooking technique used in this recipe also works well with pork chops and boneless, skinless chicken breasts. For variety, combine dried herbs and seasonings such as thyme, basil, chili powder, or Herbes de Provence with the panko bread crumbs.
