Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 pounds chicken tenders
  • 4 cloves garlic (* minced)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (* optional)
  • canola oil (* for frying)

Instruction

  • Mix together the flour, salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika in a shallow dish.
  • Beat the two eggs in a second shallow dish.
  • Coat each chicken tender in the flour.
  • Next, dip each chicken tender in the egg, letting the excess drip off, then back into the flour for a second coat. Place the tenders on a plate once coated.
  • Pour canola oil into a large skillet until about 1/2-inch high and heat over medium.
  • Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the chicken tenders.
  • Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
  • Flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  • Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
  • In a separate small skillet, heat the olive oil over medium low.
  • Add the garlic and cook 2-3 minutes or until it just starts to brown.
  • Add the soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes, if using.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes, until heated through and well blended.
  • Brush or drizzle the sauce onto the tenders until coated. Use extra sauce for dipping, if desired.
  • Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
