How to make baked honey lime chicken tenders:
- Cut your chicken breasts into smaller strips, or you could also use chicken tenders.
- In a bowl or gallon sized ziploc, combine the dry ingredients.
- Add your chicken tenders to the mixture and coat them completely.
- Grease your pan with non stick cooking spray and place them in a row.
- While the chicken strips are baking, combine your sauce. If you are having a hard time combining it, you can put it in a pan and let it heat up a little to better combine and mix it.
- After cooking the strips, and combining the sauce, pour the mixture over the baked chicken tenders, and serve warm.
You could also squeeze a little lime juice over them for a little extra lime flavor.
