Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken tenders
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1.5 tbsp sriracha

Instructions

  • Combine salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a small bowl
  • Season chicken tenders on all sides with the seasonings
  • Mix together honey and sriracha in a small bowl and set to the side
  • Heat oil in a heavy bottom frying pan over medium heat - I used a cast iron skillet
  • Once the oil is hot add the chicken tenders to the pan
  • Cook for 5 minutes turning about every 2 minutes
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the honey sriracha sauce to the pan
  • Cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes turning frequently to coat the tenders in the sauce
  • The chicken tenders should be cooked through at this point, but you can check to make sure the internal temperature reaches 165F
  • Allow the tenders to cool slightly and enjoy!

Notes

  • I usually make a double batch of these. If you do this you may want to cook the batches separately as to not overcrowd the pan.
  • I serve leftovers cold on a salad - if you want to reheat them, reheat over low heat in a lightly oiled skillet
