Creating Deliciously Healthy Pecan Chicken Fingers is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat your Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into strips or tenders of your desired size.
3. Make the Coating: In a food processor, combine the chopped pecans, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Pulse until finely ground but not powdery.
4. Prepare the Egg Wash: In a shallow bowl, beat the eggs until well mixed.
5. Coat the Chicken: Dip each chicken strip into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat it with the pecan mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated chicken fingers on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle olive oil over the top.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Ensure that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) for safety.

These steps ensure you create deliciously crispy chicken fingers that are healthy and satisfying.
