Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken tenders
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Breading Station: Set up three bowls – one with flour mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper; one with beaten eggs; and the last with breadcrumbs.
- Coat Chicken: Dip each chicken tender first in the flour mixture, then in the egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs. Ensure an even coating.
- Fry Chicken: In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken tenders in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Make Honey Butter Glaze: In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in honey and soy sauce until combined.
- Glaze Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, drizzle the honey butter glaze over the tenders and toss gently to coat.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve hot, either as a main dish or as tasty party appetizers.
