# Preparation Steps:

01 - Set the oven to 425°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
02 - Toss the potato wedges with olive oil, oregano, rosemary, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread them in a single layer on one of the prepared baking sheets.
03 - Bake the wedges for 35 minutes, turning once halfway through until golden and crisp.
04 - While potatoes bake, whisk the egg in a shallow bowl. In another bowl, combine breadcrumbs, parsley, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
05 - Dip each chicken tender in the egg, then thoroughly coat with the breadcrumb-herb mixture.
06 - Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken tenders in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F).
07 - If desired, keep cooked chicken warm in the oven while finishing remaining batches.
08 - Plate the herbed chicken tenders alongside the hot potato wedges. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges, if preferred.
