- 1 cup all-purpose flour (sifted)
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 cups panko breadcrumbs (or seasoned breadcrumbs)

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut the chicken breasts into strips about one inch wide and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Set up your breading station: Place flour in one bowl, beaten eggs in another, and panko breadcrumbs in a third bowl.
- Coat each chicken strip by dipping it in flour (shake off excess), then into the eggs (let excess drip off), and finally coat thoroughly with breadcrumbs. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
