Shoutin’ from the Rooftop

This is one of those experiments that I needed to work on. I am very happy with the end results. The entire family loved them. I took several recipes as inspiration and added my own twist and then ccame up with this end result. Because of the computer issues, I can’t post a picture. Once I have a fully functioning computer, I will get the picture added.

Sticky Sesame Chicken Tenders
1 1/4 pound chicken tenders
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons stir-fry sauce
1 clove garlic minced
1/2 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
6 tablespoons sesame seeds
baking spray
I Can’t Believe Its Not Butter Spray

In a Ziploc bag, combine chicken tenders, garlic, soy sauce & stir fry sauce. Let marinate in refrigerator for 1 hour. You can leave it longer if you need to. In a pie plate combine flour, sesame seeds, salt, and pepper. I find that a pie plate is good to use so you don’t get flour all over the place when you are coating the chicken.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Remove the chicken from the bag and throw away the marinade. Dredge each chicken tender in the flour mixture.

Place on a foil covered baking sheet which has been sprayed with baking spray. Spritz chicken lightly with I Can’t Believe Its Not Butter spray. Bake for 10 minutes then carefully turn over. Be careful that you do not pull the breading off the chicken when turning. (I know from experience. I found that a metal spatula was very useful in getting the chicken off of the pan when turning and not ripping the breading off).Spritz top side of chicken with I Can’t Believe Its Not Butter Spray. Return to oven and bake an additional 10 minutes or until cooked through.
