At what temperature do you bake chicken strips in the oven?

The optimal temperature for baking chicken strips in the oven is 400°F (200°C).

Here's why:

* High heat: This helps the chicken cook quickly and evenly, resulting in crispy, golden-brown strips.

* Tenderization: High heat also helps tenderize the chicken by breaking down tough muscle fibers.

However, the exact baking time will depend on the thickness of your chicken strips. Thicker strips will require a longer baking time.

General baking time:

* Thin strips: 15-20 minutes

* Thick strips: 20-25 minutes

Tips for perfect chicken strips:

* Preheat oven: Always preheat your oven to the desired temperature before placing the chicken strips in.

* Space them out: Ensure the chicken strips are not overcrowding the baking sheet.

* Flip halfway through: Flip the chicken strips halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking on both sides.

* Use a meat thermometer: To ensure the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, which should reach 165°F (74°C).
