We prefer boneless skinless chicken. Has anyone tried this with chicken tenderloins or boneless skinless breasts? I love a good crispy piece of chicken.

To Prettyrose Next time, try baking it near the topmost part of the oven. That's the hottest part of the oven and foods crisp better when baked there.
