Ingredients
  

  • 1.0 lb chicken tenders
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.0 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1.0 teaspoon onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.0 teaspoon salt
  • 0.0 teaspoon pepper
  • 2.0 large eggs
  • 1.0 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1.0 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1.0 cup chicken broth
  • 0.25 cup honey
  • 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1.0 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1.0 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 0.0 garnish Fresh parsley

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, combine flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Dredge each chicken tender in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  • In another bowl, beat the eggs. Dip the flour-coated chicken tenders into the egg mixture, ensuring they're fully coated.
  • In a third bowl, place the breadcrumbs. Coat each chicken tender in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
  • In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken tenders in batches and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
  • In the same pan, reduce heat to medium-low. Add chicken broth, honey, Dijon mustard, and soy sauce. Stir well to combine. If you prefer a thicker gravy, dissolve cornstarch in a small amount of cold water and stir it into the gravy mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened.
  • Plate the crispy chicken tenders and generously drizzle the honey mustard gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
  • Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes or a crisp salad.

Notes

Panko breadcrumbs can be used for extra crunch.
